about

I wrote this on the last day my ex and I were living together. I had had this melody stuck in my brain and a few words with it and he had written some poetry. Together we paid homage to our almost seven year relationship. We still remain friends to this day and I love him dearly.

lyrics

There was a time
That I thought
My life was through
That joy was a lie
And love wasn't true

And the dark whispered to me
That'd I'd always be blue
My whole heart was broken
Nothin' felt new

Barely in the light
I'm barely in the day
Barely in the light
Just wastin' away

And then there was you
There was
Then there was you
Then there was you
There was
Then there was you

And the storm clouds had parted
Oh and the moon shone above
Starlight in your eyes
Smile white as a dove

Go on and go you lonesome ghost
Go on and go your way
Go on and go you lonesome ghost
Go on and go your way

I didn't know
What I'd lost
This time
Barreling down
That South Texas line

Oh, like diamonds and whiskey
You were all of those things
With a head full of sorrow
Life ridden life a theif

Nearly in the light
Nearly in the day
Nearly in the light
Just a moment away

Nearly in the light
I'm nearly in the day
Nearly in the light
Just a moment away

Then there was Us
There was
Then there was Us
Then there was Us
There was
Then there was Us
