Some folks said I was getting well
But through the tears I couldnt tell
I could not see past yesterday
Cause your memory stood there in my way
A lonely mind plays funny tricks
Works on things that cant be fixed
Its bound to dwell on what you miss
Like a midnight touch or a morning kiss
Chorus
Its still hard to face a day if you aint in it
But I had to draw the line, a million tears
Is a mans limit
No, I dont expect your memory to let me
Ever forget it
But once in a while I live through a minute
And you aint in it
It didnt take a clock to alarm me
I was always up, Id never sleep
Scared to death Id dream of you
Thats moren I wanted to put my old
Heart through
A big dark cloud followed me around
Didnt dare look up or Id have drowned
Thought you took that sun with you
But today my curtain let a little peep slip through
Chorus
