Wilted flowers standing side by side
Candles with melted wax
One shadow cast where ever you go
Now just one set of tracks

A whisper can no longer be heard
No promises to be paid
Closets get larger with plenty of room
A bed is easier made

One straw stands alone in a glass
There's always an empty seat
There's more room now at the table
With plenty of food to eat

Yesterday seems like so long ago
Tomorrow? there isn't no hurry
The phone doesn't ring, you could care less
You don't have a reason to worry

This is the way a relationship dies
It's been this way for years
Life goes back to the way it was
Sometime after the tears
