These Reminders Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm reachin' for the mantle where
Your picture and a candle stand
Too harsh a reminder to let stay
So I find a drawer that's deep and safe
And I turn around and I walk away
Surprised that I have found the strength to last

[Verse 2]
And every time the phone will ring
I cannot seem to help but think
That maybe it is you there on the line
But I know it's not and I must agree
It was all just too hard for you and me
So the ringin' goes unanswered every time

[Chorus]
And oh I am left with these reminders
And oh won't this a-hurtin' ever mend
And oh it hurts to turn around and find you gone
And me here all alone again

[Verse 3]
That old man down at the coffee shop
Still asks me every time I stop
"By the way, how's the nice lady been?"
I just say your doin' fine
And I hope I'm right cuz I hate lying
And truth be known I'm a-wishin' you all the best

[Verse 4]
But every black car at every red light
Still takes my breath cuz I know it might
Be you and that's just somethin' I cannot deal with yet
So I stick to roads that I know
You would never have the cause to go
And so far I've only broke down twice (that's right)

[Chorus]
And oh I am left with these reminders
And oh won't this a-hurtin' ever mend
And oh it hurts to turn around and find you gone
And me here all alone again

[Verse 5]
It all comes down to just one thought
We thought we were but I guess we're not
And now we've got reminders all around
You got yours and I've got mine
Someday we'll turn around and find
That somewhere in the middle a truth was lying

[Chorus]
And oh we'll be free of these reminders
And oh (man) this old hurt will finally mend
Oh it won't hurt to turn and find you gone
And me here all alone again
