The arms of the clock weigh heavy in my conscience Reminding me of when it used to say How much time I had left, not how much wasted I look out to these vibrant skies Seeing with the colors you gave me Yet in the corners of the clouds there is grayness A remnant of who we used to be Moving on, finding someone else They all seem to have your smile And with every time I find love again It's as if I just found you once more I remember when you walked out the door And the street lights shone brightly upon you And your shadow crawled along the floor to me To enter my mind, spinning into a memory Last night I giggled with my new partner Discussing the future and how we would walk it And for a moment we settled, gazes meeting halfway Then I saw the universe in her eyes I saw you.

What's left isn't right
The arms of the clock weigh heavy in my conscience Reminding me of when it used to say How much time I had left, not how much wasted I look out to these vibrant skies Seeing with the colors you gave me Yet in the corners of the clouds there is grayness A remnant of who we used to be Moving on, finding someone else They all seem to have your smile And with every time I find love again It's as if I just found you once more I remember when you walked out the door And the street lights shone brightly upon you And your shadow crawled along the floor to me To enter my mind, spinning into a memory Last night I giggled with my new partner Discussing the future and how we would walk it And for a moment we settled, gazes meeting halfway Then I saw the universe in her eyes I saw you.
woke up this morning, trying to remember last night still can't shake off the memory I put on
