Yesterday while on my way to San Antonio, TX for a very unnecessary sales meeting I found myself walking through the MSP (Minneapolis) airport…Seeing the look on some of the peoples faces in the airport and how lost they have to be…triggered something inside of me. Thinking about how it must suck to know that something is over, to know that the end is here and real, but to not have the strength to admit it or face it.
I found myself humming an inspiration…I sang it into my phone for safe keeping. So fast forward 24hrs later to today and here I am typing the lyrics to the melody. It is a keeper…and here it is:
Friday night, Starbucks, sitting here all alone
Trying to figure out just where I went wrong
All I know is things have seemed to change
(Only) hoping for a chance to see you once again
And I know it’s time for goodbyes
Reaching for a reason to to keep you by my side
(Unanswered) Calling for this to end
Knowing that I’ll never love like this again
Checked my phone for what seems like a millionth time
No texts, and still can’t seem to put you out of my mind
Photos on the cloud, instagram be damned, this is where I’ll make my last stand
You have taken over all that I am….
And I know it’s time for goodbyes
Reaching for a reason to to keep you by my side
(Unanswered) Calling for this to end
Knowing that I’ll never love like this again
People in love passing by like a tide
Sitting here alone I’ve lost all my pride
So empty now hollowed out from inside
No reason left to keep living this lie…
So I know it’s time for goodbyes
Just calling…and reaching…for a reason…
And I know it’s time for goodbye
Reaching for a reason to to keep you by my side
(Unanwsered) Calling for this to end
Knowing that I’ll never love like this again
And I know it
And I know it
And I know it
And I know…
Thanks as always for reading…
