Ever After - Michael McDermott

Moving through the room

I was looking back to see just where you are

Six weeks by your bedside, praying for a miracle

Or shooting star

Every night i see your face

Every morning there’s not a trace

Cruel is the daylight

That doesn’t let you see what you know is true

I can hear your voice

And see your smile that i would always see, when i saw you

It’s so lonely in this place

It feels I’ve fallen from grace

I don’t know how to grieve

I just can’t believe that you’re gone

I can’t even breathe

There’s only memories left to linger on

Left to linger on

The further we went on,

I knew something was wrong

I felt it in my gut

I thought Pandora was joking

When she said some doors that open won’t ever shut

Like a lion in a cage,

My hands are fists of rage

I don’t know how to grieve

I just can’t believe

That you’re gone

I can’t even breathe

There’s only memories left to linger on

There’s a war i gotta fight

For my faith down here tonight

I’m not that strong

I can’t even breathe

There’s only memories left to linger on

Left to linger on

Ashes will scatter,

Love was all that mattered

When you were here with me…

I don’t know if its true,

I heard you got somebody knew

Watching over you

They say you moved uptown

And the place that you got now

Has got a lovely view

I wish you were still here

It’s not the same without you dear

I don’t know how to grieve

I just can’t believe

That you’re gone

I can’t even breathe

There’s only memories left to linger on

There’s a war i gotta fight

For my soul down here tonight

I’m not that strong

I can’t even breathe

There are only memories left to linger on

Left to linger on
