Alone (a stab at a song)

Dark clouds are drawing close and near
Yet you are far away from here
The simple things I miss the most
Your tooth brush, your name on the post

Chorus
Exploring the past seems a fruitless game
Was either of us solely to blame?
The truth remains that you have gone
I’m still wondering for how long?

From the clouds pours the rain
I start to feel the fullest pain
Words that I should have said to you
My lack of action made you blue

Chorus
Exploring the past seems a fruitless game
Was either of us solely to blame?
The truth remains that you have gone
I’m still wondering for how long?
Bridge
You’re not the first, though I wished the last
My heart's in tatters, the dies been cast
I tried too hard to play it cool
Now I’m left a broken fool

The rain has eased the clouds hang around
I wander bewildered, about this town
Desperately searching for your face
Reality says you’ve left this place

Closing Chorus
Exploring the past seems a fruitless game
Was either of us solely to blame?
The truth remains that you have gone
I still kid myself it won’t be for long?

So once again I’m all alone
Another victim - witness - far gone
