My dear one, lost but not forgotten 

I feel the chill, my heart is rotten 

In this wide world, I'm lost without you 

Show me how to cope and what to do


I can't bear this longing in my soul 

The stains on my heart won't let me be whole 

Pain and hurt won't seem to end 

Teach me how not to miss you, my girlfriend


Can I breathe without your love, show me how 

Teach me to live, to survive somehow 

To make it easy, without your touch 

To go on living, even though it's rough


Today I couldn't let you go, I couldn't see 

That you were slipping away from me 

My heart hurts without you here 

Teach me how not to miss you, my dear


Teach me how to breathe, how to live 

How to go on, how to forgive 

May the flowers of love be yours, my dear 

The thorns are mine, my pain is clear


These beautiful gardens, these rivers so wide 

Oh God, please bring my love back to my side 

I can't bear this longing anymore 

Teach me how not to miss you, I implore


Teach me how to live without your love 

How to find strength and rise above 

To let you go, to set you free 

Teach me how not to miss you, teach me.
