All these years I never knew
I never knew what I was gonna do
If i lost you
But now you're gone
I'm barely holdin' on
What am I to do
Cuz
Not a day goes by
That I don't feel your touch
And not a day goes by
That i can't see you face
Not a day goes by
That I'm not asking myself
Where are you now?
And are you thinking of me?
Why is it that
I Can't get you out of my mind?
Even after all this time
You have this hold on me
And i can't break free
And now you've got me questioning
Why
Not a day goes by
That I don't feel your touch
And not a day goes by
That i can't see your face
Not a day goes by
That I'm not asking myself
Where are you now?
And are you thinking of me?
Somebody help
From these chains that bind me
You can't keep doin' this to me
Cuz
Not a day goes by
That I don't feel your touch
And not a day goes by
That I can't see your face
Not a day goes by
That I'm not asking myself
Where are you now?
And are you thinking of me?
Not a day goes by
That I don't feel your touch
And not a day goes by
That I can't see your face
Not a day goes by
That I'm not asking myself
Where are you now?
And are you thinking of me?

It's really hard to just forgive and forget when you have been with someone for a long time. I wrote this thinking of everyone out there who's gone through that process

These words and phrases have been used so many times before so it isn't extremely original. However, I like the message and you put it together in a way where it is easy to relate to.
