He still begins each day Just the same as before As he wakes he's lookin' back Then his heart falls through the floor He don't know what he did this time to make her go away If you point yer ear towards the wind You can faintly hear him say I don't know what I did this time but I'm cryin' anyway I can't see any colors now The whole world's turnin' grey If you would please just come back and talk to me If only I could see yer face again I can promise you now from this day on you won't be sad again Closing her eyes she turned her back on him Then she slowly walked away She climbs into her car and glances back To see the tears run down his face, She starts to cry as she drives away And she doesn't know where to go Her whole life she had planned out with him Had just gone up in smoke She doesn't know why she ran from him And she cant go back again She runs outta gas on the outskirts of town Slams the door and walks away It starts to come a pourin' down just as if angels were cryin' from above She throws her keys and just gives up And now she's cryin' in the rain You can find him sittin' at the bar Askin' for a double please He thinks to himself Without this small glass of liquid posion I'd walk around on my knees He stares into the distance as the world around him fades away And he prays to god for the strength To get up off his knees again If only he could walk a straight line again He'd do his best from this day on To never stray beyond the path again He's lost everything in his entire life that meant anything to him It's as if he's a lost soul wondering this world Until he finds her again She gets up off her knees and she tries to make it down the road With no coat and no one near she can't fight off the cold She simply cries out to GOD And screams out for his help Hoping just to see a sign It is far too late cause by this time she is far too blind to see anything flicker in the sky They both lost hope and now their gone Doomed to wonder this world alone If only they could point their ears toward the wind It might just guide them home
