Description There’s a piano playing in the next room,
And a broken streetlight casts shadows here.
There’s a whispered memory floating over this bed,
But no one’s left to hear.

You could stare at two thousand stars,
And never remember the one he called yours.
You could whisper back to the chair in the corner,
(About everything that could have been.)
But no one’s left to hear.

In the darkness you can hold yourself,
And imagine it’s his arms.
In the darkness you could cry your sorrow,
But no one’s left to hear.

Sometime while you’re laying down,
Or walking through the street,
I expect you’ll stop a moment,
Just a pause to let yourself think.

“Everything was different then,
But that isn’t quite the truth.
Everything was better before,
But that’s how it always is.
Everything was closer then,
And maybe that’s the truth.

But everything is different now,
Even if that isn’t quite the truth.”

And, finally, with the realization that
You cannot even imagine it anymore
(His touch, his taste.)
You know you are alone
And that there is no more refuge.

There’s a piano playing in the next room,
And a broken streetlight casts shadows here.
There’s a whispered memory floating over this bed,
But no one’s left to hear.
