Alone Again

I wake from restless slumber
The dream still lingers on
Memories flash before me;
The realisation that you're gone.

I draw the covers closer
As I lay here all alone
Remembering your presence
A love that now has flown.

I know in times of trouble
My feelings keep me strong
But deep inside my heart, I know
It's with you that I belong...

I try to face the future
But my heart is in the past
A permanent reminder
Of a love that couldn't last.
