The Love I Seek
This song was written just a few months after losing the great guy I have even known...my dad. Next month makes 4 years of him being gone. For years I have been wanting to put this to music & every attempt has failed. Maybe soon my dream will come try but for now just trying to keep his memory alive!
Having you by my side is what I truly miss
The Lord took you before I could give you one final kiss
My life will never again be the same
Truth be told that I only have myself to blame
I sit alone often and start to cry
Often thinking of ways that I should die
Since you left me there's no one left for me to turn to
You always guided me with a love that was pure and true
I took for granted the time we shared
Maybe it's because I knew you had always cared
Chorus:
Never again will I hear you say "I Love You"
Never again can I call you up out of the blue
Never again can I see you smile at me
Never again will I be able to make you as happy as can be
Never again will I hear you speak
For a love like yours is what I seek
End Chorus:
But I know your love was one of a kind
And anything like it I will never find
God please give me the strength to get by
Even if that means I need to cry
My tears will be a reminder of the ways
That I loved you each & every day!
Chorus:
Never again will I hear you say "I Love You"
Never again can I call you up out of the blue
Never again can I see you smile at me
Never again will I be able to make you as happy as can be
Never again will I hear you speak
For a love like yours is what I seek
Having you by my side is what I truly miss
The Lord took you before I could give you one final kiss
My life will never again be the same
Truth be told that I only have myself to blame
I sit alone often and start to cry
Often thinking of ways that I should die
Since you left me there's no one left for me to turn to
You always guided me with a love that was pure and true
I took for granted the time we shared
Maybe it's because I knew you had always cared
Chorus:
Never again will I hear you say "I Love You"
Never again can I call you up out of the blue
Never again can I see you smile at me
Never again will I be able to make you as happy as can be
Never again will I hear you speak
For a love like yours is what I seek
End Chorus:
But I know your love was one of a kind
And anything like it I will never find
God please give me the strength to get by
Even if that means I need to cry
My tears will be a reminder of the ways
That I loved you each & every day!
Chorus:
Never again will I hear you say "I Love You"
Never again can I call you up out of the blue
Never again can I see you smile at me
Never again will I be able to make you as happy as can be
Never again will I hear you speak
For a love like yours is what I seek
