Ruby

You wouldn't know
 But I think of you often
 It's like a line I can't finish
 Like I'm wishing for nothing
 It's been a long time
 Still can't come up with something
 It's like I'm stuck in a head rush
 I've got some time I can't manage
 And I won't even try
 Did you feel the sunset beaming on your way in?
 Did you get your lover back
 And laugh about it in the end?
 Did you feel the wonder?
 Did you let go of your hurt?
 Did you hear your daughters cry for you?
 Love is when they think of you
 You wouldn't know
 But your presence is quiet
 If I stay still, I can feel it
 Like it's speaking in silence
 It's been a long night
 Now I'm imprisoned to morning
 I could do anything, it just seems too uncertain
 So I won't even try
 I stared up at the moon for
 a little while and wondered
 if maybe you were looking too
 Well maybe you were looking too
 I thought about that night when
 you told me about your big plans
 and all the things you were gonna do
 And I knew I believed in you
 All of my years keep slipping away, slipping away
 One in the same
 All of my years keep slipping away
 Wrestling me
 They got too much to take
 It's been this way before
 Pulling out the thorns
 They say that there's a reason for it
 But I don't know no more
 I saw strangers passing by
 I took their heartache all as mine
 And I felt the rain coming down hard
 Yeah, I heard your voice
 Too young to say goodbye
 Too young to say goodbye
 Too young to say goodbye
 Too young to say goodbye
 I stood on your front porch
 Talking to your brother
 I don't see him much anymore
 Things have changed since you've been gone
 Maybe we learned the hard way
 or maybe it was a mistake
 It doesn't matter either way
 It was what I wanted anyway
 All of my years keep slipping away
 Slipping away
 One in the same
 All of my years keep slipping away
 (I will tell you when I'm done)
 (I will tell you when I'm done)
 So I will tell you when I'm done
