A haunting mellody comes forth,
I know the sound.
it belongs to you,
a smile throws its shadow
across my face,
as a tear glimmers as a diamond,
sparkling pain.
always there,
always unnoticed.
the bittersweet thought comes,
you're gone, and i don't know how you are.
yes, I'm scared that you won't come back,
the mask is gone,
I miss you too much,
surrounded by millions, but I still feel alone.
your smile is your legacy.
known not only by me, but by so many others as well.
I murmur, "come back when the time is right,
but always know I love you,
you are family.
I want you to be happy, so I won't say a word about it."
Yes, I want you back, but I understaand the call,
so come back when you can,
and when you do, know that I will be waiting,
always ready to see your smile again.
So come back when you can,
and I will always be waiting here for you.
slowly the sweet mellody ends,
the final low notes whisked away in the wind,
carrying the sound back to you
