We spent the day looking away
The eyes no longer seem to meet
We loved a lot and lost much more
A word or two is all we've left
The touch I yearn for's out of reach
The smile's are long forgotten now
No holding hands and singing songs
The lyrics blend into the night
A love song was a twisted tune
A broken heart left here to burn
We love and hate walking the line
The road is forked toward the meadow
The grass still sways with summers breeze
It's time to make toothpicks of trees
A look from you and then your gone
Todays the day to carry on

And as she plays,
her sweet song of laughter
floats through the air
