Where did you go

Where did you go?

As I was sitting alone in front of the fireplace

drinking a glass of white wine, I started

thinking back to the past and back to a time

that we were happy, back when I was yours

and you were mine.

I can remember we started out as friends

and I thought a friendship that would last for

life but then when we became lovers and

soon after I was your loving husband and you

were my beautiful wife, right then all the memories

of all the good times that we ever had came

rushing into my mind and you know what? Even

after all the bad times that we had I could

no longer find them.

Just what happened to us that is what I want

really want to know one day we were drinking

this bottle of white wine making love by our fireplace

as we have so many times, then one day I came

home you were gone where did you go? What

happened? What did I do wrong? You know what

baby? I still smile when I hear our song just know

that I still think about you every single day then

dream of you at night when I try to sleep, so you

know I am not mad at you, just hurt that I could not

ever get it right, I still love you that is why I set you

free and I will still be right here waiting If you ever

want to come back to me, If you are lost and you

want to find your way home just look up towards

the night sky, find the brightest star that you can find,

for I will be wishing on it too that one day you will

come back home to me and once again it will be

Me and You.
