Now that you're gone

I close my eyes and softly ask
What's happening to me
I've realized I'm all alone
Without your company

But then we've shared so much
That a part of me is me no more
I'm caught unaware and unprepared
For what will be in store

Now that you're gone
To wake me takes me countless hours
Just thinking how to make another day go by
That coffee cup just stares at me
It turns cold and bitter sometimes as we
The cigarette butts on the floor
Who picks it up nothing but me

Now that you're gone
I count each time the phone would ring
With fingers crossed expecting actually hoping

From the other line a familiar voice
That would say I'd be back today
No it isn't you, its never you
What can i do

Now that you're gone
How can i go on living
How can i go on feeling
An empty touch
An empty stare
How can i without you there

Now that you're gone
I feel like I am useless cup
A muted violin
A single teardrop

Now that you're gone...

I try to drown my thoughts with scenes
Of places, friends we used to see
I traced the steps we've taken
No its useless they're unreal

Now that you're gone
