The Light You Left Behind

You never said how long you'd stay
You smiled, then slowly slipped away
The clock kept ticking, unaware
Of all the love that filled the air
I thought I'd break, but I just breathe
You're not here — but you still leave
The light you left behind
Still lingers in my mind
Like morning sun on window blinds
You’re gone, but I still find
The light you left behind
The room is quiet, but not cold
Your warmth is in the way I hold
The cup we shared, the words unsaid
The tears we dried, the lives we led
And I don't cry the way I did
But you live on in little things
The light you left behind
Still lingers in my mind
Like morning sun on window blinds
You’re gone, but I still find
The light you left behind
You're gone, but I still find
The light you left behind...
