Not You Anymore
Love will never be you once again And I keep telling my heart That I don’t want it to be you
Love will be an alarm clock In the mornings when I do not want to get up yet, But it’s not your kiss that will wake me up anymore
Love will be a cup of coffee In the afternoons when work gets stressful, But it’s not your smile that will calm me down anymore
Love will be a sweet lullaby In the evenings when I could not sleep, But it’s not your voice that will softly sing to me anymore
Love will be a thick, comforting blanket In the midnights when I feel so cold, But it’s not your embrace that will keep me warm anymore
My love, even if I still want you, I know deep inside my heart That it will never be you once again
