how i needed you
how i grieve now you're gone
in my dreams i see you
i awake so alone
i know you didn't want to leave
your heart yearned to stay
but the strength i always loved in you
finally gave way
somehow i knew you would leave me this way
somehow i knew you could never, never stay
and in the early morning light
after a silent peaceful night
you took my heart away and i grieve
in my dreams i can see you
i can tell you how i feel
in my dreams i can hold you
and it feels so real
i still feel the pain
i still feel your love
i still feel the pain
i still feel your love
and somehow i knew you could never, never stay
and somehow i knew you would leave me
and in the early morning light
after a silent peaceful night
you took my heart away
oh, i wished, i wished you could have stayed
