Blue Truths
Truth is I’m waitin’ for you to call
and I hope I never hear your voice
again.
Truth is I was standin’ when you left me
but I’m still waiting for the new day
to begin.
Will you take the time to ease
my mind or do I need a ticket
to get in line?
It seems the time we passed
so fast has finally taken a break
to wait for me…
Truth is there are still two pillows
on my bed but I always see the sun rise
anyway.
Truth is, the empty places the you left
cannot be filled by all the tears I have
to cry.
And when the days are overcast
I cannot last—I see you in every
drop of rain.
Pictures of you fade but still
I’m added and I cannot find
my voice again.
There is no end to this story
There is no reason to pretend
I cannot write another chapter
When the laughter’s at an end.
And I’m so afraid to find
that I will, once again,
have one more half-told tale….
