Losing Half Your Life

How do I take down the pictures
That have been hanging here for years
The outlines still show
Like shadows of his soul
Releasing all my fears
How do I pack his clothes away
That still smell of his cologne
Leaving behind empty space
And thoughts that are hard to face
Realizing that I'm alone

What do you say when it's over
What do you do with the tears you cry
How do you keep from hangin on
After he's said his last good-bye
What do you do with the heartbreak
How do you sleep at night
Can you tell me what it takes
To get past losing...half your..life

How do I move to another house
When I still call this one home
The laughter is here As well as the tears
Where his memory still roams
How do I accept this silence
That bounces off these 4 walls
Just once more I’d like to hear
“I love you so much, my dear”
But my love never calls

What do you say when it's over
What do you do with the tears you cry
How do you keep from hangin on
After he's said his last good-bye
What do you do with the heartbreak
How do you sleep at night
Can you tell me what it takes
To get past losing...half your..life

We thought we had forever
But forever’s come and gone
Heaven needed him more than me
But this pain still lingers on

So
What do you say when it's over
What do you do with the tears you cry
How do you keep from hangin on
After he's said his last good-bye
What do you do with the heartbreak
How do you sleep at night
Can you tell me what it takes
To get past losing...half your..life

Now all that’s left is the rest of my life
And reluctantly, I must move on
