give me a hug
for the road ahead
give me a smile
so I remember again
show me the way
down the winding road
towards home
haven't seen it in
so many years
just the thought
brings up my tears
not that they
are worth anything
and there's not
much to bring back
the empty bed
screams your departure
and the cobwebs
whisper I'm a martyr
can't help but wonder
if you're okay out there
wherever there is
hope you know I care
and that I forgive you
for all the bad times
'cause there were good times
to make up for mine
and all the mistakes
that swirled around us
held no bearing,
didn't make us fuss
but I miss you
in this cold empty place
doesn't feel like home
there's no trace of you
give me a hug
for the road ahead
give me a smile
so I remember again
show me the way
down the winding road
towards home
