I Lost

Where did you go Why did you leave me They keep saying it isn’t your fault Saying that I’ll heal That I’ll find someone else I don’t want anyone else How can I heal when you were my heart When you were what kept me going I don’t want to keep going I keep remembering what you told me You kept telling me I needed to finish school You wanted me to get my education It was important to you It meant more to you than it ever did to me So I’m gonna try I have to try I still need to prove to you I can I guess you found a way to get me to stop worrying about you It’d be silly to worry about the dead guy Maybe as silly as talking to the dead They can’t talk back But maybe they’ll hear my words Can you hear them I love you I loved you through it all Even when I felt like I shouldn’t I never gave up on you But loving you didn’t keep you with me You never got a chance to meet daddy And you never will
