We didn't say a word in the morning
And soon after she left without warning
But there was a second of silence
As if her feelings were fighting violence

We met each other a long time ago
In A Bar that nobody longer knows
Her smile was the brightest I ever seen
It made everything feel so serene

From there one thing led to another
But when it came time to settle down, she couldn’t be a mother
I waited and waited, day and night
I waited until there was no end in sight

Destiny had other plans for her and I
To this day I still wonder why
Yet still I would want a lifetime
Even if to myself it’s a crime

And so tonight I'll head to the levy
To wait there until she's ready
The day may not be here yet
I'll just sit and watch the sunset
