Old strings

I saw a teardrop fall on my shoe.             
Why does it make me think of you?                                                       
I feel a little weird in my skin.
The road’s to long,
Don’t know where to begin.

It just ain’t right.
I’m giving up the fight.
I’ll be lost without you tonight.

Chorus
It was the day you left.
It was your last goodbye.
It was my broken heart, my endless cry.
The day I broke, the day you died.
The way you went away.
The way you didn’t say goodbye.
Goodbye.
Lost without you tonight.

All my hope is gone, out the door.
Lying naked soulless on the floor.
Covered in all my tears.
Lost in all my childhood fears.
My guardian angel let me fall.
He didn’t hear me cry, didn’t hear me call.
I’ll be lost without you tonight.

Chorus
It was the day you left.
It was your last goodbye.
It was my broken heart, my endless cry.
The day I broke, the day you died.  
The way you went away.
The way you didn’t say goodbye.
Goodbye.
Lost without you tonight.

You should have held on a little longer.
You should have waited until I was stronger.
You should have played old strings again.
Give that black guitar one more song to sing.

Chorus
It was the day you left.
It was your last goodbye.
It was my broken heart, my endless cry.
The day I broke, the day you died.  
The way you went away.
The way you didn’t say goodbye.
Goodbye.
Lost without you tonight...

Another teardrop on my shoe.
Another day without
A sky that should have been blue.
I’ll be lost, tonight, without you.
