Standing by the window
Wishing you were here
Knowing that I feel complete
Whenever you are near

Tears fall in my sadness
I feel alone and blue
The road is always empty
Without the sight of you

But then I do remember
The times that we do share
My heart is so much lighter
Your love makes me aware

No matter what the distance
You're always at my side
Spirit of your friendship
Each day in life resides

Of course I'll always miss you
In life you are my treasure
But always you are thought of
With love that I can't measure.
