Breathless In The Beauty
Melody Martinez 1986 (Texas)
The sun is shining, skies are clear,
but without you, I feel the fear.
The beauty takes my breath away,
reminding me you’re gone today.
The flowers bloom, the birds sing bright,
but in my heart, an endless night.
On this sweet day, I miss you so,
and in the light, my tears still flow.
The windchimes softly sing and sway,
on this warm and golden day.
Their music stirs the grief I bear,
and takes my breath, for you're not there.
This lovely day just makes it clear,
without you, you're not here.
In this beauty, I can't breathe,
I miss you more than I can grieve.
I lose my breath, my heart is torn,
missing you, forever mourn.
