lyrics

open up your eyes
he's not coming home
why do you look so surprised?

he left yesterday for a new life
silent words, scratched them on a note
"i might regret this, but i've got to try."

no, i can't say that i've been there before,
but i know now that i've never loved you more.

you got to believe what i'm telling you.
someday you'll be free from what you're going through.
though, i may not know how you feel,
someday you'll be fine, 'cause life's a spinning wheel.

in search of better days,
his kids cried "when's daddy coming home?"
she stayed silent; she had nothing to say.

but now his wife and kids have moved on.
there's nothing better out there and he wished he had known.
"goddamn this life. now i'm all alone."

no, i can't say that i've been there before,
but i know now that i've never loved you more.

you got to believe what i'm telling you.
someday you'll be free from what you're going through.
though, i may not know how you feel,
someday you'll be fine, 'cause life's a spinning wheel.

about

Night Windows New Jersey

Where do I go from here? Everyone is getting older. I’m losing people both to death and life. I’ve written about the sadness that comes with the gift of life, but never like this. This time, I leaned as hard into the sadness as necessary in order to feel better.
