Missing You
Eternal Longing: Wayne Merdinger's Melodic Reflections on Love and Loss
Lyrics
I suppose I'll get by in the usual way
I will continue with my life in the usual manner.
And I'll feel the pain that time should be healing
I will feel the lingering pain that time should be easing.
However I try to get through everyday
I attempt to navigate through each day, but it's challenging.
It's only with the memories I'm stealing
My solace lies in stealing moments with memories of you.
I can see you in my dreams again
You appear in my dreams, bringing comfort.
But it's good to see you now and then
Seeing you occasionally in reality is reassuring.
Then I awake to find that you're not there
Awakening, I realize your absence.
Through my sad eyes, I realize
Through my sorrowful eyes, I understand.
If I ever will get over missing you
Recovering from the pain of missing you will be a prolonged process.
It's gonna take a long, long time
The healing will require a substantial amount of time.
If I ever know you're gone forever
If I ever realize you're gone forever.
Will the pain stop going to
Will the pain eventually cease?
Or do I really need the thought of missing you
Or is the constant thought of missing you necessary?
I'd give everything just to hold you again
I would give anything to embrace you again.
Though I close my eyes and I can almost hear you
Closing my eyes, I can almost hear your presence.
I'll try to believe but I don't know when
I'll strive to believe, but uncertainty lingers.
The sun comes up and maybe I'll be near you
Perhaps, with the sunrise, proximity to you might return.
I can see you in my dreams again
You visit me in dreams, providing solace.
But it's good to see you now and then
Your occasional real presence is comforting.
Then I awake to find that you're not there
Waking up, the harsh reality of your absence sets in.
Through my sad eyes, I realize
Through tear-filled eyes, I comprehend.
If I ever will get over missing you
Overcoming the pain of missing you will be a lengthy journey.
It's gonna take a long, long time
The process will demand a considerable amount of time.
If I ever know you're gone forever
If I ever realize you're gone forever.
Will the pain stop going to
Will the pain eventually subside?
Or do I really need the thought of missing you
Or is the persistent thought of missing you indispensable?
Some people ought to look at their lives
Some should reflect on their lives and the missed opportunities.
And the times they should've had
Considering every moment as the last is essential.
(and living every moment like it's the last)
So when I think of you
Thinking of you, I have no regrets about our past.
I have no regrets about the past
If I ever will get over missing you
Recovering from the pain of missing you will be a prolonged process.
It's gonna take a long, long time
The healing will require a substantial amount of time.
If I ever know you're gone forever
If I ever realize you're gone forever.
Will the pain stop going to
Will the pain eventually cease?
Or do I really need the thought of missing you
Or is the constant thought of missing you necessary?
If I ever will get over missing you
Recovering from the pain of missing you will be a prolonged process.
It's gonna take a long, long time
The healing will require a substantial amount of time.
If I ever know you're gone forever
If I ever realize you're gone forever.
Will the pain stop going to
Will the pain eventually cease?
Or do I really need the thought of missing you
Or is the constant thought of missing you necessary?
