On the day that he was gone
I wasn't by your side
By the time you're in pain
We were miles a part
But know that my pain
When I was not with you
Was greater than what you've felt
I was far away from you
Yet my thoughts were about you
And my heart felt like dying
Just to hear your voice
Laced with so much longing
Perhaps until the end of time
My memories of the past will remain
And the pain, all in vain
By then, I'd wish I was there
