My tears start slowly; I'm falling apart.

My life is empty now, so is my heart.

The days pass by, soon I will know.

I?m not quite certain, my suspicions they grow.

It soon is obvious, painfully clear.

Although you?re gone from me--still you are near.

Everything's ended, it?s over and done.

But what?s finished for you, for me?s just begun.

My tears fall slowly, there?s joy in my heart.

My arms once empty; now hold you in part.

The days pass by, seems ages ago.

I?m not quite certain, if you even know.

It?s all so obvious, painfully clear.

Although you?re gone from me--still you are near.

Everything's ended, it?s over and done.

It's finished for you; a new life?s begun.
