With tears that fall like raindrops,  
that tap against my windowpane.  
I sit here with a broken heart,  
wondering if it will ever mend again.  
The tears are for a love one,  
who has gone far away.  
Saying as they left I won’t be back  
again forever and a day. 
 
Forever is a long time,  
and I wonder if my heart  
will ever last that long.  
They say that I must be strong,  
but it is not them hurting so.  
Only time can tell,  
how long my heart will ache,  
but in the meantime, life marches on.
