Sweet Embrace

by Derek Lee Goodreid

/

about

A hauntingly beautiful barebones country ballad that explores the theme of loss and grief.

lyrics

SWEET EMBRACE

Oh how i miss you let me count the ways
Yeah it’s been too many days

Oh how your fire kept me warm
When I felt I could not go on

And your smile could captivate a room
Like an arrow piercing my heart right through

Oh how i miss your sweet embrace
More amazing than god’s good grace
It was something i could feel
something real
At least for a little while
I miss your damn smile

Your laughter was a torch that shined so bright
It lead me out of my cave and into your light

You taught me that life was worth living
And that my reflection was worth forgiving

Oh how i miss your sweet embrace
More amazing than god’s good grace
It was something i could feel
something real
At least for a little while
I miss your damn smile
Oh how I miss you
I wish that i could still kiss you
Oh i miss your goddamn beautiful smile
