    Story Behind the Song
    I started writing this song after a rough period in my marriage last summer and finished it in the fall, when I thought the problems were all but over. It was a sort of "what if ?" thought that I had. Ironically, my wife and I separated 2 weeks after I finished the song. I was convinced I didn't see it coming. It would wind up being the basis for another song entitled "I never knew I knew myself so well" to be released soon.

    Lyrics
    - WITH ME -
    Music & Lyrics by
    Geoff RObertson ©2000

    We put it all on paper,
    What was mine & what was hers
    And started filling boxes one by one
    From what I've seen on TV
    I guess it could have gone much worse
    But what I'd give if it could all just be undone

    ***CHORUS***
    She says that it's so hard for her
    To turn and walk away
    From a lifetime's worth of dreams
    We shared just yesterday
    She thinks I've got it easy
    And it's clear that she don't see
    At least she gets to walk away
    But I still have to stay and live with me

    I handed her the car keys
    And she said I guess I'll go
    Then she got in our car and drove away
    A lesson learned the hard way
    Oh, but how was I to know
    That I would still be learning to this day

    (CHORUS)

    ***BRIDGE***
    She says these last few years
    That she's forgotten how to laugh
    I was just so hard to live with
    Oh, but she don't know the half

    (CHORUS
