Every time I close my eyes
I still see you looking at me...
You're laying there beside me
but it feels a million miles away...
Looking at myself in the mirror
sometimes it's hard to rememeber thats me...
His and hers laundry together in the dryer,
two plates and bowls in the sink...
Sometimes in the darkness
the ghosts of the past come to call...
As I watch you leave after bringing me home
I can't help but smile...
The silence of the night surrounds me
after you send that goodnight text...
I want so much to tell you,
to share whats in my heart...
The night is dark and long
and the tears won't be held back...
Taking a deep breath
I get ready to face another day...
Staring out the darkened window
watching all the passing cars...
A dark deserted crossroads,
eerily silent and bare...
