when the night comes for me
and its darkness is the pain I feel
when my heart freezes over
'cause you're no longer
my sunrise in the morning
I so much want to see
you're gone God knows where
you made a retreat I couldn't foresee
somewhere out there living the good life
wanting to be free
and I'm out here, wondering
what went wrong, what did I miss
what heartbeat became unreal
I have no answers
I'm not trying to find them
'cause there's no reason to explain
what happened here
so I'm picking up the pieces
packing suitcases, not coming back
no more sunrises, no more mornings
to meet
and I do what I always do
moving on, closing doors
opening new ones
no use wondering about the why's
the world is a great place to be
always new oppertunities to meet
that's how I look at life
feelin' just fine
