I've tasted tears from broken hearts
I've known my share of pain
I've worn the shoes of crippled souls
With the shadows that remain

My sleeve has tried to comfort me
As it wipes away the past
The memories trapped inside a tear
Were destined not to last

I've heard the sound of shattered dreams
Drifting farther out of sight
While promises fade away like mist
Disappearing into the night

My hand still reaches across the bed
Expecting to touch your skin
Finding nothing but a broken heart
Where your body should have been

I didn't know love hurt this much
Until you said goodbye
Now I'm supposed to forget your name
Tell me how, I'll try
