So...

So I’m sitting here waiting alone

For I don’t know what and I don’t know why 

You are out there 200 miles

And not coming home but this isn’t home 

It’s just a place we both used to live 

Aluminum shell of dreams come and gone 

I don’t see your face I can’t hear your voice 

The silence is numb

 

But I try to hold onto what is left 

What is left?

And I’d tell you that I still have love 

But you are so far away

Still I go on

 

Nights turn into days and days into weeks 

Weeks into months and nothing has changed 

I go into work Watch the TV

Sleep on the couch Hear the phone ring 

But it isn’t you It’s just my mom

Wondering when I’m coming home

But that isn’t home it’s just a place 

Where I used to live

 

But I try to hold onto what is left 

What is left?

And I’d tell you that I still have love 

But you are not here to hear 

Still I go on

 

Now you’re sitting there hearing this song 

Wondering when it all falls apart

I wash the dishes Sweep up the floor

Pick up the debris that your love left behind

I hear that you’re well That you’re happy again 

And I wouldn’t change that for the world 

And so there you are And so here I am 

And I just don’t know

But I try to hold onto what is left 

What is left?

And I’d tell you that I still have love 

I wish we could be somewhere
