You were once here
And now you're gone
All those games we'd play
And all things you'd say
Are just faint memories
Inside of me

You were once here
And now you're gone
No more smiling face
Or warm embrace
Just an empty seat
Beside me

You were once here
And now you're gone
That beautiful song
That made me strong
Is just a low hum
Around me

You were once here
And now you're gone
That house I would go to
With the great street view
Is just another house
That passes me

You were once here
And now you're gone
Those caring eyes
Oh so wise
Are just closed lids
In front of me
