I Miss You

When I wake up everyday
I miss you
and it never goes away
I miss you
people smile and while
I take and even laugh
I'm not even half the man they knew
without you
when I'm in our bed each night
and I turn out the light
oh how I miss you

little things reminding me about you
who will I annoy again, if not you?
in my silent room sometimes
I'll close my eyes
and I whisper sweet good-byes
you'll never hear
Esther dear.....
fifty years, Ester and Joe
tell me how could this be so?
oh how I miss you

was I there
when you needed me to be there?
could you see
there wasn't one day
when you weren't my best girl?
though we both drove each other crazy
I love all the love you gave me
and you where all that mattered
in my world

everyday I love you more
and miss you
and I wish you knew
that through the darkest night
you are still the light
that helps me find my way
and I pray

one day we will meet again
and all this emptiness will end
and I will kiss you
'till that day
though we're apart
I'll hold you close
here in my heart
but God
I miss you
