dry your eyes mate
you know you really miss someone when you even miss fighting with them. why is it so hard to get through a single day? why is it that i get out of bed with the heaviest feeling and fall asleep in the same state? damn you, rob! i miss you. one great thing in my life...that was you, babes. the greatest thing i had, and now that you're gone, well, i have nothing really to be proud of. looking back at all the times we fought, i can't help but laugh. do you realize that a year ago we were saying to ourselves that we'd look back on our arguments and laugh, and now we're at that stage...we've come so far, and you've gone so far. i don't know...i really don't. everyday meshes into another and time just seems to go as one, a minute is an hour, and an hour is a week, a week now has turned into a year, and a month has become eternity. how do people go about getting by this? has anyone been in my situation? if so please tell me what you did to survive. i can't help but feel like we were meant to be. i know you feel the same way because the last thing you said to me was that you'd always love me, and if i feel the same way, than that means something, it means a lot! maybe there's a way that I can put the thought of you and everything i had with you in a box and just hold it, and then take it out when the time is right...maybe you can do the same. and if the time is never right, well than i guess we'll just keep the boxes under our beds and let it collect dust. and years will pass and we'll grow old, then one day we'll cross paths and smile and nod with our grandkids tugging at our sleeves, asking me "who's he?" and i'll reply with "my long lost half".
Dry Your eyes
So then I move my hand up from down by my side
It's shakin', my life is crashin' before my eyes
Turn the palm of my hand up to face the skies
Touch the bottom of his chin and let out a sigh
'Cause I can't imagine my life without you and me
There's things I can't imagine doin', things I can't imagine seein'
It weren't supposed to be easy, surely
Please, please, I beg you please
He brings his hands up towards where my hands rested
He wraps his fingers round mine with the softness he's blessed with
He peels away my fingers, looks at me and then gestures
By pushin' my hand away to my chest, from his
And I'm just standin' there, I can't say a word
'Cause everythin's just gone
I've got nothin'
Absolutely nothin'
Tryin' to pull him close out of bare desperation
Put my arms around him tryin' to change what he's sayin'
Pull my head level with his so he might engage in
Look into his eyes to make him listen again
I'm not gonna fuckin', just fuckin' leave it all now
'Cause you said it'd be forever and that was your vow
And you're gonna let our things simply crash and fall down
You're well out of order now, this is well out of town
he pulls away, my arms are tightly clamped round his neck
Gently pushes me back and he looks at me straight
Turns around so he's now got his back to my face
Takes one step forward, looks back, and then walks away
I know in the past I've found it hard to say
Telling you things, but not telling it straight
But the more I pull on your hand and say
The more you pull away
