I Can

I can go to the ocean
And watch the waves crash on the shore
But I'll never understand
Why you're not here anymore
I can see the clouds gather
Before a gentle rain
But my heart will always ache
Not having known your pain
I can listen to pretty songs
And find meaning in their words
But I'll wonder about that day
And if you wanted to be heard
I can give thanks for what I have
And watch day turn into night
But still feel sorry that you couldn't
Find your way towards the light
I can cry myself to sleep
While I miss you more each day
But I'll keep you in my heart
And it is there you'll always stay
