Lost your faith

Before I go home for the weekend, I thought maybe I'd go ahead and get this post out of the way. I wrote the chords and melody to this song a long time before the words were actually added. The music was inspired by the ending of a significant relationship. I knew in time I would be able to finish the words but couldn't because I was not ready for whatever reason. The ending of this relationship really hurt more than I thought most things could, it was really a great experience for me as I am such a "happy-g0-lucky" type personality, I am happy to have seen emotional misery in this form. For that I am grateful. Finally, I knew the time was here many many months later and I knew by actually finishing the lyrics to this song, I would officially close that chapter of my life and move on to greener pasteurs. Most people will probably look at these lyrics and think I'm not over her, but, in fact, it allowed me to voice how I felt during that dark period in my life right after the relationship ended. And now I write happy songs and love songs that are inspired more by my best friend and soon to be wife. So I know I've moved on, and I've found my greener pasteur. So here are the lyrics as I've finished. ... so I didn' post this before the weekend, so I finished it today, oh well. it's hard for me to remember the words with out the lyric sheet or music.

As I lay here in the middle of the night
Wondering why we just got in a fight
Words were said and things were thrown
But I just want you back in the morn

Because you walked out on me

I used to drive for hours
Knowing the weekend would be ours
We spent the time making love all afternoon
Not knowing it would all be over so soon

Because you walked out on me
Because you lost your faith in me

Now I feel so alone
Why won't you just pick up the telephone
And call me here, you won't be scared
And we can reconcile all the love that we shared

Before you walked out on me
Because you lost your faith in me

I wish I could go back in time
And fix the things you thought were crimes
Then you wouldn't have to know...
know...
know...
NO!!!...

I grew so cold from the lies you told
I had to drink the pain away
I broke just once as it rained for months
But now I'm healed most all the way

Because you walked out on me
Because you lost your faith in me
