Time heals wounds, they say, time takes the pain away I wonder why it never happens for me It's years since you went away but I miss you night and day Why you had to go is a mystery to me What seemed important then becomes trivial when Fate deals the card that forces your hand All the places we'd been, all the things we had seen No more in the future; it just isn't planned It's all very strange, but when you went, I changed It just seemed to happen with the passing of each day I don't understand. Is it part of a plan? Does one person grow when another fades away? Small things you'd do weave pictures of you They're printed for life on the back of my mind I was always so sure. Your life was so pure To the faults and to bad times a loved one stays blind I always found that when you were around You helped me with worries and eased all my fears You always had time for problems of mine A shoulder to cry on, a listening ear
