Jim van den Bos
Why does the world show me how to get back
Back into shape, back to it.
Back into the proper way to cope
Showing me “Back to normal”
Burn a candle
Pour the extra drink to nothing
The one that was supposed to be yours
The one we will not have together again
I need to deal with your shadow
I need to deal with your light not being here
I need to be happy with the memory of your light
But now, I need just a glimmer of you
All I get is just missing you
All I get is regret from not making more of it
All I get is just this emptiness
All I get is regret from hating all this new now
I remember your smell now, but I will forget
I remember your smile now, but
I remember your voice, but
I remember you
But
