This is a song I wrote on 7/13/2011. It's inspired by my beloved cat Nefee who passed away on this date from kidney failure. Sadly, I was on vacation when he had passed and when I returned, the news was broken to me. R.I.P. Nefee <3
it gets hard to breathe,
when I feel this dam breaking
deep within inside of me.
(I can't hold my composure anymore)
where I walk,
I see a memory of you,
where you used to sleep
and where you'd come running to me...
(I can't hold my composure anymore)
Chorus: I cry for you,
and what you used to be.
I wish you were here,
right next to me.
it's hard to sleep at night,
knowing you'll never be,
where you were always seen,
right next to me.*
looking through photos,
re-living the past,
sitting in our favorite chair,
or cuddled under the blanket.
(I can't hold my composure anymore)
you'd cry for me at night,
and crawl into my bed.
I'd run my fingers through your hair
and kiss you on your head.
I gave you nicknames,
and tell you that you were my boy,
that you were my everything,
that you were my world.
(I can't hold my composure anymore)
Chorus: I cry for you,
and what you used to be.
I wish you were here,
right next to me.
it's hard to sleep at night,
knowing you'll never be,
where you were always seen,
right next to me.*
I cry for you,
and what you used to be.
I wish you were here...
I wish you were here..
I wish you were here...**
where I walk,
I see a memory of you.
where you used to play,
and where you'd be waiting for me...
where I walk,
I see a memory of you,
where you used to sleep
and where you'd come running to me...
(I can't hold my composure anymore)
Chorus: I cry for you,
and what you used to be.
I wish you were here,
right next to me.
it's hard to sleep at night,
knowing you'll never be,
where you were always seen,
right next to me.*
I cry for you,
and what you used to be.
I wish you were here...
I wish you were here..
I wish you were here...**
right next to me.
