When you went away, my world turned cold and gray.
When you wanted to leave, I begged you to stay.
You were my life, and one day I hoped to be your wife.
Memories of her always hid in the shadows,
so as you can see I fought many battles.
They say time will mend a broken heart;
I just don't know where to start.
Memories of him I will always cherish,
I hope this love in my heart will one day perish.
I Still Love You
When You Went Away
