lyrics

It's that time of year again.
Where we gather with our family, lovers and our friends.
Packed living rooms,
over indulgence,
Stressing over cutlery and some chairs.
Sitting round my folks
But
I can't sit back and pretend.
That I'm invested,
Try to smile but I can't fight against these tears
so, I take a step outside and breathe in all my fears.
Everyone looks to be happy,
Full of cheer,
Yet, I can't join in joking, laughing knowing you're not here.

cause

All I'll ever need is that love you gave.
All I'll ever need are your hugs
and your smiling face.
All I'll ever want is that chance, just another day.
All i'll ever long for in life is to numb this pain.
And Every step that you walked,
I'll become - I'll follow too
Always searching for a comfort that can come from

only you.

I haven't been able to visit you.
I haven't been able to sit with truth.
I'm healing slowly
still,
this emptiness is bitter - you
always taught me I should take my time,
be slow within my youth
I rushed around,
didn't give all I could have given you.
It's difficult,
dealing with this guilt I've hidden,
Truth is that I've hit a rut,
refusing to move forward,
cause,
I feel like I'd be giving up.
On your life,
your memory
but, I'm not living - just
wandering empty rooms for your touch.

All I'll ever need is that love you gave.
All I'll ever need are your hugs
and your smiling face.
All I'll ever want is that chance, just another day.
All i'll ever long for in life is to numb this pain.
Every step that you walked,
I'll become - I'll follow too.
Always searching for a comfort that can come from

Only you

Now, only God knows
What I'd give up just to see you standing, smiling at your window.
To get back all the time that we dwindled.
Replace all the moments that we gave up.

Now only God knows
How I wish to say the words that we never got to finish
All the love that was wasted,
never given.
Now we lay flowers at your grave for forgiveness.

All I'll ever need is that love you gave.
All I'll ever need are your hugs
and your smiling face.
All I'll ever want is that chance, just another day.
All i'll ever long for in life is to numb this pain.
Every step that you walked,
I'll become - I'll follow too.
Always searching for a comfort that can come from

Only you

I know I've got to let this go.
I know I've got to let me grow.
You'd never want this pain for me, an anger that just seems to hold
My words,
my ability
to call her phone.

I know I've gotta let you go
Cause if I don't, I will never grow
I promise you will always be a part of me,
my anchor in every storm.
Until the day you raise your hands in embrace
to
call me home.
