I FORGOT THE WORDS TO THE SONG

i forgot the words and hummed along As the music fell silent And the band went home Your voice was so quiet Like a page torn from a book That I had read but somehow forgot Many years before What we had was over Long before you left me Or maybe it was the other way around They say you never forget But with time the pain eases It did for me but one night I tore the wound back open Maybe because I felt a need To watch it bleed again And now the softness of your voice Plays like silver in my mind With the velvet tone Of home
