The Grief Lyrics

I see you every day you pass by me like a breeze
That look in your eyes tells me your far away
And all our friends are so concerned about your welfare
This rut your in is killing you slowly
You get up and go but there's a fog in your eyes
And that sweet smile of yours is missing now

I watch the children play do they think of me
Do they remember the day that I left?
They've gotten on with their lives I suppose they're right
Why haven't you done the same?

I'm sorry I left but it was beyond my control
Isn't sad the way that heaven leaves you burning
I know you cry at night that's why I'm here right now
Do you hear the voices saying you got to change your life?
Move on it's the way it should be
Don't think so much of me I'm gone why are you still holding on

I watch the children play do they think of me
Do they remember the day that I left?
They've gotten on with their lives I suppose they're right
Why haven't you done the same?

Now were together in your dreams like how it used to be
Look over you shoulder there's a life waiting there for you
Let your hand slip away
Girl don't you be afraid
I'm out of reach but your love still rides with me
The first step is the hardest you'll see
Cause the grief of ghosts is that you're still hanging on to me

I'm watch the children sleep they seem so at peace
Now I know now they won't forget me
They've gotten on with their lives I suppose they're right
Tell me why haven't you done the same
