Traci's Song

                                  
Got into my car

Wondered just how far I’d go

Watched you close the door

Knowing that you would not be mine any more

And I cannot believe feelings can suddenly stop on cue

And I cannot believe I should have to drive away from you

You cannot believe any of this is the right thing to do

You should not believe I would ever want to find someone new

But if I ever had to they would have to have

Your laugh, and your smile, and your eyes when they’ve been closed for a while

And your hands, and your smell, and the joy on your face when you’re giving me hell

And those curls, so much hair, and the soft hugs you give and those sweatshirts you wear

And your lips, and this list

I know that it’s long, but there’s something I missed

And that’s my heart

When it sees that you’re gone

I try to tell it to move on, but it just keeps beating

Sometimes late at night, I put up a fight to cry

Shout across the sky

??No reply to your reply??

And I cannot believe you would let this fade so fast

I will not believe you’d let us slip into the past

And I cannot believe that I’d let you leave

Losing you can only make me wise

Don’t want to believe that I’d find that warmth in someone else’s eyes

And if I ever had to

They would have to have your teeth and your chin

And your skill at cards cause you always win

And your neck and your cheek

??And the flowers you have and you’re starting to speak??

And your mood, oh so chill

And when we’d watch movies, you couldn’t sit still

And this list could get long

So many good things, but there’s still something wrong

And that’s my heart, when it sees that you’re gone

I try to tell it to move on, but it just keeps beating for you
