Lyrics
You Were Everything
(Verse)
You have never left my mind
And I see you all the time.
Your face, your hands
And I know that I will never find another man to
Hold me tight
You were more than light
(Chorus)
And you were everything to me
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
You were every thing
(Verse)
And now I wait and know that I will never see
The likes of you and me
Together, side by side
Knowing that you'll be there to hold me and to care
I close my eyes and cry
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
As I go through missing you
I always see your eyes
And how they say, "Another day, just you and me."
And I'll never know the glow
And I love you so
(Chorus)
