Story Behind the Song
The first version of this song was written a few years ago as an acoustic song. We re-worked it in November, 2002 as a harder song. This recording was made in October, 2003. The whole final mix was produced in one very long night.
Lyrics
You say you'll be coming back,
but you don't know when.
You promised me this isn't over,
but it feels so permanent.
You try and ease my suffering.
You try to act like my friend.
But there are no words.
There is no time.
There is nothing, we've reached the end.
I know that time can heal all wounds,
But too much time cuts me deeper.
And it's hard for me to understand
Why God wouldn't let me keep her.
Why God wouldn't let me...
I sit alone again tonight,
And the tears will not stop falling.
I write the words that come to mind
And wonder why you aren't calling.
Wonder why you aren't...
I try sleeping again tonight,
But my eyes won't close.
I watch as the time goes by,
And my heart finds no repose.
I wish I could turn back time,
Back to when you were here.
But I would wait forever
And your reasons are so unclear.
I feel the emptiness inside.
I see indifference in your eyes.
And, there's a part of me that died
On the night we said our goodbyes.
On the night we said our...
Our future holds much more than this,
But you were looking for perfection.
And, I'm sure my words you'll just dismiss,
And I'll be feeling this rejection.
And I'll be dealing with it.
