The Wayside of Another Day

Like a bombshell it's killing you The day she said her love was through It's time for her to hit the road With bags in hand she's out the door You're left alone just like before So what will help to ease the load Nothing hurts like a broken heart The pain remains the day you start To dwell only on the past Each day is filled with fear and doubt But that will change when you find out That broken hearts don't always last All the tears you try to hide The bitterness you keep inside But that won't help just how you feel You drown your pain and all your scars In cheap hotels and local bars Sometimes it takes more time to heal Your endless days of misery And still your weary eyes can't see Life turning out another way But then when midnight comes to call Those bad times then begin to fall To the wayside of another day
