A Fatefull Night
As I walked down the long dirt road
the thought of you set me aglow.
The sun smiled down, as
I said your name then the tears
fell like rain.
I remembered on that fateful
night things weren't good we had
a fight. Insults screamed, hateful things
said, Then you stormed out and
almost drove away, thou the stinging
rain, I begged you to stay,
and I heard your tires scream
as you drove away.
I went to bed, and cried
myself to sleep, praying, the lord
your soul to keep. I was awakened
by a shrieking bell, the telephone
ringing or maybe the doorbell.
I put on my robe and ran to the
door, thanking God that he'd
kept you safe once more.
But when I opened the door,
it was not you. There before me
stood a man in blue. "I'm sorry",
he said, to tell you this way, your
true love is dead, nothing
else to say.
Now as the months
pass into years, I still cry
a river of tears, mourning the
loss of the love we had knowing
now it never could of been.
