When We Turns Into Me

When We Turns Into Me
Robert E. Welch, Sr.
December 14, 2017


Through the years we’ve had our troubles
And it never seemed to go just right.
We always tried to make it work.
But all we ever did was fight.

You took the kids and left me here
Brokenhearted and alone.
Wishing there was just one way
Just one way to save our home.

All alone in this big house
Emptiness is all I see.
Now I know how lonely feels
It’s when we turns into me.

It’s when we turns into me,
That what cuts right thru the heart.
The pain will never go away,
It’s always here to stay,
It’s when we turns into me.
