Slipping

It’s difficult to live this way

So much pain in telling my heart

I wasn’t enough to make you stay

You said without a tear we had to part

I want to move on but I can’t start

All my dreams have blown away

I wasn’t enough to make you stay

All that time spent blindly hoping

That you didn’t mind me this way

Now in the dark I’m desperately groping

For a ray of hopeful light

But all I’m left with is dreadful night

While you walk on in rays of sun

I wasn’t enough to make you stay

And this war will never be won

Now even my daylight is dark and grey

No light for a soul that’s slipping away

I simply wasn’t enough to make you stay
