You will only realise what you have when it's gone
When you lose the only thing you depended upon
Well I try so much still it's hard to go on
How could I take it all for granted, how could I be so wrong
I appreciate now just what you meant to me and
I wish I'd shown you the things I could be
Sometimes it's so very hard to express but
I thank you for all the things I possess
When you left without warning how was I to know
that it would be the last, I would see you no more
You're so far away
though you shine like a star
You're the light in the dark
you let me see the shadow of me
the shadow of me
I would give up forever to see you once more
to relive precious moments that we had before
We don't talk because our understanding is strong
We don't need any words so I'll play you this song
(Ik spylje dit ferske foar dy)
When you left without warning how was I to know

You're so far away

You're the light in the dark
you let me see
You're so far away
though you shine like a star
You're the light in the dark
you let me see
the shadow of me
When you lose the only thing you depended upon
