I walk into the empty room - I'm startled!
I feel and smell what was once so familiar,
my heart leaps, my knees go weak,
you're here, you're back, you're here!

I look around but you're not there,
You've come, you've seen, you've gone.
Yet in my heart the music starts,
I'm ready to erupt in song.

I see your jacket on the couch,
your case against the wall,
you did not say, I did not know,
I was still waiting for your call.

Warm tears start rolling down my face
blood rushes to my head.
A sea of emotions engulf and swallow me,
I fall weakly onto my bed.

Your presence makes my spirit soar,
give me wings so I can fly.
There is nothing as good as having you back,
so I will not even ask you why.
