An Ode Lyrics by For Everest

For Everest Goes Pop

0

Dust collects over a velvet box like a thick layer of snow
And her hand was digging through a drawer when it landed in the cold
And opening she saw the ring a young lover gave her long ago
And memories peeked through the cracks of her marriage that went cold
I'd remember all those sleepless nights
And I'd ask you but you'd not reply
You'd just stare out the window
And in the morning I saw that you were gone
And the things you left, well most were small
But I guess you couldn't untie the knot
For a day it sat on her dresser top and she pondered what to do
She tried to keep it out of sight since when she looked, the pain, it grew
I had waited but you never showed
And I had to learn to live on my own again
For reasons I didn't know
And the winters, they were oh so cold
And I wondered if you were okay though
The absence would only grow
So she took the ring and put it in a bag with a few more of his things
Brought it to the pawn shop
To cash in all that time and see what it brings
'Cause it took time but I'm not alone
And now I have a family of my own
And they don't even know
Of my old life, of my time with you
And well if you stayed maybe
We too could have seen what we could do
But you're just now a memory
Of a time so long ago you see
But I still wonder where you could be
So I thank you for the time we had
But it's time to bring our story to an end
So goodbye my lost husband
