D6 F#m7
You wake in the morning and take a look at your side

You see her smile in your mind but it fades with the dawning light

Her voice in your head

Her voice is the only sound

That you wish you could hear one more time

Her face on the bedside table, signs of her everywhere

She went after midnight, her last words: „Remember me!“

You wake up the next morning, another look at your side
D6 C#m F#m
There is somebody lying beside you you don’t even recognize

You forget who you are but you cannot forget her
D6 C#m F#m
The loss that you feel is a pain that you cannot bear

That you don’t want to feel for the rest of your life

For the rest of your life

It doesn’t get better it only gets different

You were not ready to say goodbye and you

Cry in the shower and sob in your pillow

The days will pass and will turn into years
