My life has changed since you're not here 

I'd give anything just to see your face

That smile that used to light a room

Your little things around the place

I'd stay awake a thousand nights

Just to listen to you snore

Turn a million cartwheels

To hear your key unlock the door

I'm standing in an empty room

Expecting to hear you call my name

Then the realisation dawns

I know my life will never be the same

I'd give anything to be in your arms

To breathe deeply 'The smell of you'

If I could have just one more moment

There's nothing I wouldn't do

People tell me time will heal

It's not what I want to hear

Because all I want with all my heart

Is for you to be right here..
