Once Were

I remember all of your favorite places you liked to be
I remember all of the things you liked to do everyday
The spaces you once filled, the places you once were
Nobody can fill this void the way you did

And I know your spirit remains present
And I know you’re still here
But even though it’s still your home
It doesn’t feel the same way anymore

It’s hard to believe that you could go from being here
To disappearing forever and ever
And all that’s left are these memories that once were

The pictures that are left of you
The memories I shared with you
This home will always be your home
Even if you are no more

And I’ll see you in my dreams
And I’ll keep you in my heart
And I know you lay next to me
And I know you never really left but

It’s hard to believe that you could go from being here
To disappearing forever and ever
And all that’s left are these memories that once were

And it’s hard to move on when this place doesn’t feel the same way
Because I know you never really left but
it doesn’t feel right to move on without you
