We were walking on the beach, Side by side, hand in hand; The waves crashing around our feet The setting sun was glistening in his hair Like he was an angel, or maybe it was just me I told him I wanted this to never end, That simple, sweet moment of peace; He told me not to worry, We'd be like this forever; Just me and him, him and me We were waiting in line for our table At the fanciest place in town; The light twinkling up above from the chandelier Reflected in his brightened eyes, Like they held the stars, or maybe it was just me When the waiter asked how many, He answered quick and simply A table for two please, just us; Just me and her, her and me As we laid in bed I was wrapped in his arms, And he was better than any blanket, So soft and warm, or maybe it was just me I thought I heard a noise, Some scary intruder come to **** But he told me not to worry, There was no one there but us, Just me and him, him and me One day he got a call, He owed someone money, He sounded calm at the time, but I knew better; He seemed a bit scared, or maybe it was just me I took a test the next week, I found out I was pregnant, We had something to love, to show our devotion; He promised me to stay and raise our family, We'd do it together Just me and him, him and me The next day he got another call And his voice sounded shaky As he hung up the phone, I told him he seemed scared, And he said it was just me They came in a black car They came with guns They shot my sweetheart in the head and left And I sat crying on the doorstep, My hands on my belly As it hit me: Now it was just me

Just Me
We were walking on the beach, Side by side, hand in hand; The waves crashing around our feet The setting sun was glistening in his hair Like he was an angel, or maybe it was just me I told him I wanted this to never end, That simple, sweet moment of peace; He told me not to worry, We'd be like this forever; Just me and him, him and me We were waiting in line for our table At the fanciest place in town; The light twinkling up above from the chandelier Reflected in his brightened eyes, Like they held the stars, or maybe it was just me When the waiter asked how many, He answered quick and simply A table for two please, just us; Just me and her, her and me As we laid in bed I was wrapped in his arms, And he was better than any blanket, So soft and warm, or maybe it was just me I thought I heard a noise, Some scary intruder come to **** But he told me not to worry, There was no one there but us, Just me and him, him and me One day he got a call, He owed someone money, He sounded calm at the time, but I knew better; He seemed a bit scared, or maybe it was just me I took a test the next week, I found out I was pregnant, We had something to love, to show our devotion; He promised me to stay and raise our family, We'd do it together Just me and him, him and me The next day he got another call And his voice sounded shaky As he hung up the phone, I told him he seemed scared, And he said it was just me They came in a black car They came with guns They shot my sweetheart in the head and left And I sat crying on the doorstep, My hands on my belly As it hit me: Now it was just me
