That Dark September Night

Ok, so I wrote this song for Virginia, my friend who died in the car accident in September.
It's not great, so don't expect much. But I wanted to share it with y'all.

That Dark September Night

You were always the one with a smile on your face
You were the one who could brighten up my day
There was something special about you, everyone could see it
But now I'm getting the phonecall telling me it's all over

*Chorus*
Now ever since that dark September night
I've had these scars on my heart
Now that you're gone I don't know what to do
Crying myself to sleep and lying awake all those late nights
Thinking about everything I lost on that dark September night

Walking and waiting for you to come around
Knowing this is really the end of life as I knew it to be
Knowing I'll see you again someday

*Chorus*

Sometimes I still ask myself why
Why me, why you, why did you have to go this way?
So many things left unsaid, so many questions left unanswered
Sometimes I feel as if I'm drowning in my sorrow
Where did this all go wrong?

*Chorus*

I miss you so much, feeling like something's not right
Still screaming out why, missing everything you used to be
And whenever the eighteenth comes around I have to stop and think
About everything the world lost on that dark September night

*Chorus*

You were the perfect example of what a life should look like
You radiated everything that I wished I could be
You shone with the love of Christ all around you
And you're love for others could just brighten a room

*Chorus*
And whenever the eighteenth comes around I have to stop and think
About everything I lost on that dark September night
