I watch the shadows falling on the sheets of this old bed


The shadows that have fallen on my life since you have left



An homage to the life I live since my life has come undone



I sit here drinking coffee with the rising of the sun



Light has become a reminder of a life I'll never have



I've spent so much time wasting time I never should have spent



It's a lesson learning living isn't living without love



and that love is something given when you feel like giving up



And if giving up was living for you then who was I to make you stay



But if time was feeling giving I would just want one more day



Just to take you in my arms and tell you all the things I didn't



Maybe that would've held you back from leaving both our stories unfinished



It's finished now but I don't think that you ever thought of this



The shadows in my world are what you're leaving in your midst
