about

Written for Mom after Dad passed away. They were tied so tightly together, lives fitting like whisper and thought, it was almost as if she lost half her heart when Dad died. I can't even imagine....well, this song is what I imagine.

lyrics

Lie Alone

You came crashing down
On waves of pain upon my shore
Only me to brake
Your fall and cut the cloth for more

Your hands were like felted oak
But your drunken words were stones on my heart
Love tore us both to shreds
But watching you go was the hardest part

chorus
Now I lie alone tonight
How can I ever let go
You were the one to carry me
Tonight I lie alone

Nights are like broken glass
And every shard a piece of our past
The sun comes and steals you back
Each day the pain is worse than the last

chorus
Now I lie alone tonight
How can I ever let go
You were the one to carry me
Tonight I lie alone

(bridge)

chorus
Now I lie alone tonight
How can I ever let go
You were the one to carry me
Tonight I lie alone
