Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
Broke my heart to see you go
Thought you might stay even though
You had other things you felt
You had to do
I can't stand to be this way
Alone without you night and day
Wish there was some way
That I could bring you back home
[CHORUS]
My thoughts and dreams will be of you
My heart will yearn for you
To be back by my side
What will it take
To ease my heartache
And feel complete again
[VERSE 2]
This old wood house just ain't the same
Your scent remains to remind me
Of just how much I miss you
There's been a void here in our home
Since you've been gone
And I don't know
How the hell I'm gonna make it through
REPEAT CHORUS
[BREAK]
Sittin' here without you makes me think
Of all the good times that we had
Of all the promises that we made
I'm just a lonely empty soul
Counting day and counting hours
Until you come back here again
And bring your love to change this house into a home
[VERSE 3]
And I think that I can see
Your plane arriving, but I don't know
What made these butterflies
Come over me but still
I see our future in my head
Happy days with sunshine
For a lifetime
If I'm with you I know I'll be Okay
REPEAT CHORUS
