Not today (song)

by SmileeItsBritt   May 11, 2005


It's been a week
Since you walked out of my life
Now I can't breathe Without you by my side
It hurts to know
That you'll no longer be around
And I'm on my own
I'll have to make it here somehow

You aren't here to help me like you used to be, I'm all alone and I really need...

You
To dry the tears I cry
To hold me at your side
And keep me here alive
I need you
To save me in some way
To tell me it's OK
I'm gonna be alright
But not today

You shut me out
And I can't even talk to you
I can't hear those words
That you'll always love me too
You're so far away
It's you I hardly know
Now I'm by myself
And I can't make it on my own

You aren't here to help me like you used to be, I'm all alone and I really need...

You
No longer dry the tears I cry
You never hold me at your side
To keep me here alive
I need you
To save me in some way
But you never tell me it's OK
I'm gonna be alright
But not today

Now you aren't here
But you're always on my mind
I try so hard
But I just can't leave you behind
I love you more
Than any words can say
I haven't been the same
Since you turned and walked away

You aren't here to help me like you used to be, I'm all alone and now I see...

I don't need you
To dry the tears I cry
To hold me at your side
To keep me here alive
It's not you
Who's gonna save me in some way
It's up to me to be OK
I'm gonna be alright
But not today

    Lovely song you have written. Heartfelt and beautifully depicted - curious as to whether you sing also? Or just write music? I write music too but sound like a drowning cat :o) I enjoyed this piece very much Thanks for sharing it!
