Dew

There was a day when I had it all
everything I could ever need,
all of you,
sitting beside me.
Watched as that day slipped by
I didn't even realize all that I had lost,
barely blinked an eye.

Now I'm haunted, so haunted by you
memories flood in, I don't know what to do
I'm haunted, so haunted by the thought of you
everything that fell away drags me back down

I steer clear of what I know still lingers
and I'm dodging more than ever before.
I see you everywhere and nowhere at all;
lost sight, left with such long walks home.
My heart's not in it, nowhere at all.

I'm haunted, so haunted by the ghost of you.
Never in my life have I been so scared,
tell me what to do.

I'm six hundred miles down, so lost without you;
an invariable train-wreck, off the tracks.
I don't know what to do.

I'm the lonesome dew
mourning each new day without you.
