Lifes Saddest Occasions

She looks in the mirror And the tears rolls down her face The lines she never notice before Are now all over the place She fumbles with a cigarette As she tries to get it light She heard the knock on the door Asking if she’s alright Every one comes up to hugs her There’s not much they can say They just bend their heads And slowly walk away Jasmines flowers over the fire place That he knows she’s always like And he would always bring it for her When he comes from work at night The weather outside is changing Thunder sounds like distance drums She goes over to the table Pour her self a drink of rum The rain started falling As she walks out the door Today he’s is leaving her And won’t come back no more She gets in the back seat Looking out the windows She looks at the house A long line of cars follows This is the last time That He will ever be home Now her life is so empty He just went and left her alone She thinks of the years And how quickly did it pass He swear to be here for ever Today he lies under the grass The place is getting dark now As she says he final goodbye Don’t know how to face tomorrow But she knows she got to try One of life’s saddest occasions Is when a love one passes away? And many want to comfort her Just can’t find the right words to say Every thing that could be said Has probably been said already And some times the best thing to do Is to just give a hug and let them be And at the funeral service today She buries her heart with him And she walks out the cemetery gate A new challenge she face within Today its Ten years pass already She places flowers on his stone And I think she met him in heaven Because she died that night alone
