Story Behind the Song
This song paints the picture of someone who has had their spouse walk out on them, leaving them to pick up the pieces.
Lyrics
"I remember the day you said goodbye,
a look of guilt a remorseless stare.
I said 'what about your bright-eyed
two-years old, beautiful, blond-haired
baby girl?'
'Oh, she'll be fine you'll get a check each month, in the mail'
But what about me? What about us? What about the love we shared? What about me? What about us? What about love?
I'm sure you will be happier now that you've gone. I'm sure it will better from now on.
But there's a hole inside my heart the shape of you, and I'm undone.
What about me? What about us? What about love?
She asked about you the other night.
She wanted to know why we have to be apart.
I looked into her, bright 5-years old beautiful blue eyes,
Sat her on my lap, held her tight, broke down and cried...
I told her about you, how I believed in us,
how I believed in the love we shared.
I told her about you, I told her about us,
how I believed in love.
I told her 'it'll be so much better from now on'
I told her you're happier now that you've gone, but there's a hole inside my heart the shape of you and I'm undone. What about me? What about us? What about love?
