SITTING HERE ALL ALONE DEALING WITH THE PAIN
ONE YEAR AFTER THE FIRE..
WHEN ALL MY SKIES THAT WERE BLUE....HELLISHLY TURNED TO BLACK.
THE NIGHT WE SAID THAT WE, US, YOU AND I JUST COULDN'T BE ANYMORE,
WE KISSED GOODBYE AT THE CURB,
TEARS FALLING FROM BOTH OUR EYES,
TRYING TO TELL EACHOTHER IT WOULD BE ALLRIGHT,
THAT WE JUST COULDN'T GIVE IT ANYMORE TRIES...
YOU GOT IN YOUR CAR...THE PICTURE OF YOU AND I STILL IN YOUR DASH,
I STOOD THERE CRYING AS YOU PULLED AWAY,
I WATCHED YOUR LIGHTS FADE IN THE DARK OF THIS COLD NIGHT,
WISHIN WE COULD JUST STAY TOGETHER AND FIGHT...
AS I TURNED AND WALKED AWAY....
THE SOUND I HEARD TURNED MY FACE GHOST WHITE....
I RAN TO THE END OF THE STREET...
THE PAVEMENT HARD ON MY BARE FEET...
I HEARD THE SQUEEL OF THE TIRES,
AND THE BUSTING OF THE GLASS,
WHEN I GOT THERE....THE SIGHT TO HEARTBREAKING TO BARE...
MY KNEES WERE WEAK I HIT THE GRASS....
I HEARD THE SCREAMS...AS YOUR CAR BURST INTO FLAMES....
I RAN AFTER HIM SCREAMIN AND CURSING NAMES....
HOW COULD HE DO THIS??
WHY WASN'T HE LOOKING???
ONE YEAR LATER AFTER THE FIRE...
I WALK HOME ALONE SAME WAY I HAVE EACH DAY...
ALL THE NEIGHBORS SEE ME...I DON'T HAVE MUCH TO SAY...
ONE YEAR AGO TODAY WE SAID GOODBYE
ONE YEAR AGO TODAY GOD TOOK YOUR LIFE...
I STILL HAVE THE DIAMOND BAND....
AND I STILL TAKES RESIDENCE ON MY HAND...
ONLY NOW I DON'T HAVE YOU...
I SIT HERE ALONE IN OUR BED....
YOUR MEMORY STILL LIVING WELL IN MY HEAD...
I LAY DOWN AND ON YOUR PILLOW I CRY,
I REACH DOWN AND FIND THE LETTER YOU WROTE TO ME
THE NIGHT WE SAID GOOD BYE...
NOW THIS WAS YOUR REAL BUT LATE GOODBYE
