lyrics

I long for something more
Something deep inside
Something bigger than myself
I long for you and I
I've searched for someone who can take away this ache
Someone to quench my thirst
To be there when I wake

The days and weeks float by like pollen in the air
I sit and ponder about the reasons she don't care
She smiled and laughed at me with a crowd of her own kind
She never did look back, just pushed me right on down the line

You could have left me whole
You could have left me standing strong
Instead you left me alone
Instead you left me hanging on
Just hanging on

Today I met a man, to the bottle he was glued
He said his wife had left and took his children too
I asked him,
"Why?"
He said,
"I haven't got a clue. Just a richer man had stole her hand and off they flew".
But to this day he knows she lies awake at night
Thinking about the life they shared and all those precious times
His advice to me was not to live this way
Pick up and move along from the past that holds the pain.

You could have left me whole
You could have left me standing strong
Instead you left me alone
Instead you left me hanging on
Hanging from a thread.
