Look for me in the people I’ve known or loved, and if you cannot give me away, at least let me live on your eyes and not on...

And I’ve got to understand You must release the ones you love And let go of their hand. I try and cope the best I can But I’m missing you so much If I could only see you And once more feel your touch. Yes, you’ve just walked on ahead of me Don’t worry I’ll be fine But now and then I swear I feel Your hand slip into mine. ~
