I miss him at night

I picture myself by his side

We would make a beautiful pair

The two of us sitting together

Close, by the fireside

Looking at the flames and sparks

Cuddling up and smiling

Happily holding hands and kissing

Each of us dreaming

Of mornings to come - together

I think we would be just happy

Relaxed and perfectly at ease

An old married couple

Enjoying winter as summer

As long as we could be together

And should he die

Or should I

I know inside

That the other would follow

Together in death as in life

We would make such a lovely couple

If only he would realize

That his future lies open

Right here by my side

I miss him at night
