Story Behind The Song
This is a song written about a conversation I had with my grandmother after she lost her husband. She said, "you know, every sense misses him equally. I want to touch him when I wake up in the middle of the night as much as I want to smell him in the morning."

Lyrics
I could have sworn I heard an angel cry
When you first told me you were leaving
I could have sworn I felt the world stand still
When all my fears came to relieve me
(prechorus)
and I, I can't find the words I want to say
Though I'm somehow forced to find a way
(chorus)
I will love you forever though my heart is learning to break once again
Oh and if I never, I'll see you when I'm home and I'll hold you once again
Memories of the frozen past
are drifting through my head tonight
If I could see you and hear you laugh
Maybe I could find some sleep tonight
(prechorus)
(chorus)
(chorus 2)
Oh, you know I love you and these five sense call to see you all brand new
Oh, if I never I'll see you when I'm home and I'll show them all to you
(chorus)
