I need to talk with you again,
Why did you go away?
All our time together still feels like yesterday

I never thought I'd see 
A single day without you,
The things we take for granted, 
We can sometimes lose

And if I promise not to feel this pain,
Will I see you again? Will I see you again?

[Chorus]
'Cause time will pass me by,
Maybe I'll never learn to smile,
But I know I'll make it through,
If you wait for me

And all the tears I cry,
No matter how I try,
They'll never bring you home to me
Won't you wait for me in heaven?

Do you remember how it was?
When we never seemed to care,
The days went by so quickly,
'Cause I thought you'd always be there

And it's hard to let you go,
Though I know that I must try,
I feel like I've been cheated,
'Cause we never said goodbye

And if I promise not to feel this pain, 
Will I see you again? Will I see you again?

[Chorus]

'Cause I miss you so, and I need to know
Will you wait for me?

[Chorus]
