No Ordinary Morning

If there was nothing that I could say

This time it’s goodbye

Turned your back and you just walked away

The song lyrics echo in my head

Leaves me numb inside I think of you

as if they were written for us, for me

Together is all I knew

But it’s always like that after a break up, every song is for you.

We moved too fast but I had no sign

Friendship would just be a motion I would go through

I would try to turn the hands of time

In the same way that if you stayed, love would be just a motion

Then look to you for the reason why

Just empty words, I’ve already heard – you said them so well.

The love we had passed me by

Who could blame me for believing them

And as the sun would set you would rise

This morning there was sunshine, so bright, you could be tricked into thinking it was warm

Fall from the sky into paradise

I played the song, let the words fall around me onto the snow

Is there no light in your heart for me?

And thought – no more…

You've closed your eyes, you no longer see

There were no lies between me and you

I’ll write you emails of carefully chosen words

You said nothing of what you knew

To let you know I am well

But there was still something in your eyes

And before I leave, we will have one more awkward moment

Left me helpless and paralyzed

One final goodbye.

And I’ll walk away with the lyrics echoing in my head

You could give a million reasons,

change the world and change the times,

Could not give me the secrets of your heart

and of your mind
In the darkness that surrounds me now
there is no peace of mind
Your careless words undo me,
leave the thought of us behind
