I keep this to myself
You know and no one else
I ask you please
To take it with you
Half ash and quarter smoke
The rest I can't let go
I need something
To keep you with me
Everyone's alone
I know
And I cannot pretend that it's easy
Everyone's apart
It shows
Like bags
Beneath your eyes
Your watch still in
The drawer
Souvenirs from New York
Even your wedding band
Protected
Friends send me flowers still
They expect them on the still
They might as well
Just mail me laughter
Everyone's alone
I know
But I cannot pretend that it's easy
Everyone's apart
It shows
Like bags
Beneath your eyes
Like bags
Beneath your eyes
