Fading Rearview

The headlights cut the pouring rain

We laughed about the miles behind

A sudden flash, a screech of steel

And everything was left behind (ohhh)

Now the kitchen's quiet in the morning light

No tiny footsteps on the wooden floor

Just the remnants of a sudden night

I don't hear your laughter

anymore

Your favorite book is on the chair

The dust is settling on the glass

I hold the memory of your hair

And watch the empty hours pass

Oh,

why was I the one to stay?

(why...) To carry all this heavy air?

They took my whole world in a day

And left me standing there

Just the quiet... Just the rain... (mmmmm)
