I can’t believe it’s been a year,

since you went a way.

I don’t know how I’ve lived without you,

and you’re not here in my life everyday.

This is it, the ending point.

I’ll never cry another tear.

Cause I know you’re better off now,

even though you’re not here.

I can’t believe it’s been a year,

since I dressed in black for you,

and didn’t know what to do.

Not a day goes by where I don’t think of you,

and that smile on your face.

At least one of our memories that will never be replaced,

I wrote your name in the sand on your birthday.

Just like it’s written in my heart,

with a little R.I.P. under it,

enough to make me fall apart.

I love you now, like I’ll love you then.

I’ll never stop thinking of you,

now and forever, ‘til the end.
