Together again

Standing in a graveyard, silent as the dead
i can feel you coming even though you softly tread
i turn to you and you see my tear stained face
you also notice I'm wearing a nightdress of only lace
i stare at you, my eyes wide with shock
you take my hand, and we start to walk
over and over again i say
"you came back, i don't understand how it can be this way"
you say "i never went anywhere" and then you draw me near
its our anniversary, of course i am here
we've been married for one year, and i want to re-new my vow
i look at you in wonder and ask myself how
we go into the woods, moonlight shines where we were married
you pick me up, and into that clearing i am carried
i kiss your lips and say "i want back what was stolen"
but then you start to fade away, can feel you going
i scream into the darkness "i will always love you"
you give me an odd look and i say "i love you too"
but i cannot hear you because now you are gone
my heart says i love you but my mind says move on
i know i cant do that, cus its only you i love
i know that you're in heaven, watching from above
little do i know, your standing next to me
you run your hands down my face, wondering why i don't see
you yell out loudly "baby, why wont you answer?"
we're back at the gravestone, your in shock, it says you died of cancer
you wonder about that, because your alive and well
but as the tears run down my face and i start to yell
you start to wonder "could it really be true?"
you stop and slowly start to think things through
all those times you said i love you and i didn't answer back
to me you weren't there, it wasn't love that i lack
and those nights I'd sit in bed and cry
now you understand, now you know why
you wondered what was wrong, what was going through my head
now you realize, i cry because you are dead
in your mind you said "it'll be OK" and held me tight
touching my face, kissing my lips saying it'll be alright
you had stroked my hair and held me, showing that you care
but in all reality, you were never there
you'd passed away from cancer, a year ago to this day
for your love i died too, and began to fade away
your the one who completed me, you made me whole
how could i go on living when i didn't have a soul?
for a year i suffered and lived my life in pain
bu after this one year, i was no longer sane
i wrapped a rope around my neck and jumped from a chair
someday soon somebody will find my body hanging there
now i can see and feel you, so i take your hand in mine
we live in happiness for eternity, even though we both have died
