As Days go By

Biding my time as the days go by

Checking myself and wondering why

With you not here, my heart's in pain

With you not here, I'm going insane

I knew you were mine right from the start

I knew I was yours when you asked for my heart

You asked for my heart and said that you loved me

I gave you my love, now I can't live without you

Why did you leave me here all by myself

To face this cold world without your help

The babies are crying, they seek out your face

But you are not here, nowhere in this place

The winters are cold and I feel so alone

I'm used to you holding me and keeping me warm

Sometimes in my sleep, I picture you here

But then I wake up and you're nowhere near

This war is no good, and the people are pretending

That it is ok, and soon will be ending

I seek out your face on the news each day

Hoping and praying that you are ok

Hoping that god will watch over you

And bring you home safe, yes you, and your crew

Biding my time as the days go by

Checking myself and wondering why

With you not here, my heart is in pain

With you not here, I'm going insane
