3,670 Days

I’m going down
Straight down in flames
Loving, barely living
Feeling the pain

My woman left me
10 years ago to the day
Oh, such a shame
3,670 days
I feel just the same
Like it was  yesterday

My heart 
Dear god does it hurt
It’s getting oh so dark
Bringing me to my knees
Lord, won’t you help me please

My woman left me 
10 years ago to the day
Oh, such a shame
3,670 days 
I feel just the same
Like it was yesterday

Caught her 
With another man
Listening to our favorite song
Then she was gone
Broke my heart into
Oh the pain in loving you

My woman left me 
10 years ago to the day
Oh, such a shame
3,670 days 
I feel just the same
Like it was yesterday

Now here I sit crying alone
No one to love
To make this place a home
Drowning in a puddle of tears
Which can’t wash away 
The last 10 years
That I’ve been missing you

My woman left me
Crying all alone 
10 years ago to the day
I still hear that song
Oh, such a shame
Now that she’s gone
3,670 days 
I feel just the same
Like it was yesterday…
