The Dying Side

Everything where we left it
When we got back home
Crossword on the counter
Jackets by the door
Tickets to the ballgame
Paper on the porch
Blueprints on the table
So much we’re planning for

When you walked over that bridge to the dying side
Did you see a band of angels
Did you see your loved ones eyes
I’ve been trying
I’ve been wondering
Did it take you by surprise
It’s so hard to believe you’d leave without goodbye

I’m going through the motions
All in a daze
People asking to help us
I can’t think of ways
I keep feeling like I hear you coming through the door
Everything I used to handle I can’t handle anymore

When you walked over that bridge to the dying side
Did you see a band of angels
Did you see your loved ones eyes
I’ve been trying
I’ve been wondering
Did it take you by surprise
It’s so hard to believe you’d leave without goodbye

Your face, your eyes, beautiful and wise
You leave us broken hearted

When you walked over that bridge to the dying side
Did you see a band of angels
Did you see your loved ones eyes
I’ve been trying
I’ve been wondering
Did it take you by surprise
It’s so hard to believe
