Lonely Interlude
This damn bed it's so cold now
once a place we both shared dreams.
I remember what you were wearing
on the night that you left me.
You told me to stay there
You had some business elsewhere
everything about that night still so clear
that it's tearing me apart.
And in this cemetary
I lay on your stone
The night is silent and the grass is so cold.
But i don't mind cause in my head
your with me tonight.
You where in that accident, a car hit
you as it sped, the doctors told me you were
dead and i didn't believe them till i saw
the blood on your dress.
As i lay above your casket
tears flow out just like a river
i make sure that im here, every year
on our special day.
As i touch your stone, trace a name
i used to call with my fingers, i know
it'll never be the same.
And in this cemetary, on your name
i do lay, vowing to make it through
another day.
To make you proud, looking to heaven
as i smile, as your love passes by me
i know everything is ok.
and that your safe.
