It's as if I feel everything except you now you're gone
Not a trace, no ghost, no essence
Not a hint of evidence
We got caught up in the drama
In a crisis I can cope
It's only when I stop to wonder
That I see the lack of hope
Now I'm detached from the memory
Apart I drift over time
Who have I cast in the role of me -
To replace what recall can't find?
We've lost it all
It's got my name on it
I can't claim it
But the hurt is mine
I don't think I have it in me
To give love or to receive
Yet I want everyone to take me in their arms
And love me while I grieve
And mother we never even made one good memory
Apart we drift over time
Better off where you are
There's no guarantee
There's no guarantee
We had our time
What did we do with it?
I can't reclaim it
Now the hurt is mine
