Headstone

Hello my dear

It’s so nice to see you here

How long has it been?

Oh it feels like years

But I’m sure it’s just been days

Been walking around alone

Drunk and missing you at home

You know I’ll never feel the same

Or ask another girl to take my name

Think I’ve been stopping by too much

Don’t want you to get sick of me

On my way home from the Copper Coin

It’s this or I jump into the sea

And I will never forgive myself for not being there to protect you

I should have been at home instead of out trying to forget you

Just one fight and I’m out the door

What kind of man am I?

I swore I’d never leave your side

Hello my dear

It’s so hard to see you here

How long has it been since we put you in the ground?

Oh it feels like days, but it’s been years

“Oh, and please don’t call me baby, it’s just too hard to hear

Too hard to hear

Leave you flowers at your headstone

Just sit and talk to you my dear”

My dear
