This was just a song i was working on, wondering what you guys thought of it
Enjoy
Enjoy
Keep On Living
The smell of pine and peppermint
that lingers on your pillow
the way you used to laugh
at all the stupid things I say
the feeling of your cheeks and chin
three days after shaving last
and never letting on
that you might die the next day
The way you'd never be afraid
or care what other people thought
just to be just who you were
would always be enough
Your eyes that always made me think of
the rainclouds that I love so much
Or how you'd always catch my tears
When I fell to my knees
(chorus)
All these things are what I need
just to keep on living
the perfect memories in my mind
they never fade away
What I would give just to feel
your arms around me one last time
And hear you whisper in my ear
sweet nothings that i long to hear
Kiss my cheek and hold my hand,
"I love you till the end."
You'd always do exactly what
i needed just to cheer me up
and you'd always do it just because
you love to see me smile
and missing you is killing me
the empty feeling in my chest
I don't know what to fill it with
Or if I ever will
I look at pictures of the past
trying to ignore the pain
It doesn't work but seeing you
is better than forgetting
sometimes just to see your smile
makes my heart heal for a while
and even though the scar's still there
I know that you're there too
(chorus)
All these things are what I need
just to keep on living
the perfect memories in my mind
they never fade away
What I would give just to feel
your arms around me one last time
And hear you whisper in my ear
sweet nothings that i long to hear
Kiss my cheek and hold my hand,
"I love you till the end."
(bridge)
Summer nights and winter evenings
Sunsets, days, and twilights beaming
the stars reflecting in your eyes
as we whispered our goodbyes
And even though I know you're gone
I hope you know that I still love you
And even if it seems
like i've forgotten you
I never will
(chorus)
All these things are what I need
just to keep on living
the perfect memories in my mind
they never fade away
What I would give just to feel
your arms around me one last time
And hear you whisper in my ear
sweet nothings that i long to hear
Kiss my cheek and hold my hand,
"I love you till the end."
