Gone

My teardrops fall and hit the sink I look out the window and try to think How I used to help you do the dishes Apparently you had too many wishes, Too many hopes and dreams And you started playing games. Suddenly there's too much heat in the kitchen I smell something burning in the oven But I just get another lager from the fridge Though I know beer won't build the bridge That will get me back to your heart And I just don't know where to start. I'm still haunted by echoes of your laughter Whatever happened to;they lived happily ever after? How could you choose money over love? I can't understand this kind of change It makes what's familiar strange And I feel my mind just disengage. But then,unconditional love is just a dream A tragedy,a distant star And endearments like for better or worse Are but just a tentative guess You left me in this mess and stress And for this wound,you're the nurse.
