I think I've got the picture

An empty closet, a suitcase by the door
fresh made coffee untouched and getting cold
the daily news lies unread and on the floor
I don't believe I need to see any more

Cause I think I've got the picture you are sending
And I know just how the story’s ending
I can see this is the day you will be leaving
And today will be the day I start my grieving

On the desk lies a letter from your past
a faded photograph encased in glass
this picture is not of me and you
its of someone I guess that you once knew

And I think I've got the picture you are sending
now I know just how this story's ending
I can see this is the day you will be leaving
And today will be the first day of my grieving,
Yes today will be the first day of my grieving.
