After You

[Verse 1]
I never even thought about the time to come after
After you
Nothing but true. How could I be a fool?

[Verse 2]
I never even wanted to believe you could walk out
To the cold
Nothing but snow. Didn’t need me no more

[Verse 3]
She said she had to be alone, to find a road, to walk down
Of her own
Something I knew. There was nothing I could do

[Verse 4]
And now I have to throw away the gifts you made from your soul
To move on
One for the flame, and one for my road

[Verse 5]
I haven’t been long without but now I call out to another soul
See me now
Will I be okay? Could you love me the same?

[Verse 6]
And though she is a perfect being a physical dream I know
I’ll go
I got what I needed, now it’s one for that road

[Verse 7]
I need a little time alone so I’ll want it more when I find
My truth
I can’t see it now, maybe you’ll reach out?

[Verse 8]
I never even thought about the time to come after
After you
Every word you don’t say, brings a new clearer day
