The Phone That Rang That Day
In night's claws I start to think,
Of the phone that rang that day,
The sound will never mean the same,
Well you won't see me cry,
For the rest I must be strong,
Are you up there dancing in the sky,
I see the darkness in my dreams,
Life's more real then it seems,
And I cannot stop thinking,
That I never got the chance to say goodbye,
Standing by your side,
Damp ground beneath my feet,
Mind full of words I will never speak?
Where are the answers that I seek,
We're much to young for such a day,
No I cannot handle letting go,
And I shudder when I think,
I dressed you for your funeral,
Am I alright?
I guess you will never know,
And the sun still shines,
But now I am all alone,
I never had the chance to say goodbye,
Spill my feelings to the earth,
I never had the chance to say goodbye,
The tears filling up my eyes,
I never had the chance to say goodbye,
Just cannot hide my pain inside,
And I wish,
That the phone had rang with news of me,
For the pain of life hurts more then to flee,
I cannot do this on my own,
I never even had the chance to say goodbye,
