The starlight silhouette

As I watch you leave

Taking with you everything

That meant anything to me

The glimmer fades

As you leave this place

And I can feel it empty out

Every memory we had

Was discarded and taken

Out with the trash

All those bright and sunny summer days

Were so great

But now seem so far away

With each step

I watch you forget me

With each thought I keep regretting

Every mistake I made

Every step, as you walk away

Takes me farther from what I was

Wish I still had what we were

Hope and a prayer from above

Won't bring me back to her
