The Countdown


You watch the clock
Watch the minute’s change
Then the hours, one by one
Slipping away
It's just the countdown
The time waiting for the sun
Without her you can't sleep
If you do go under
The dreams will come
She'll be there
There to be the reminder
The woman that you loved
The woman who walked away
She said she loves someone else
It was over, no room for argument
She was done, positive
Like the signed name on the papers
Bold and black
The name you watched her sign
But now yours is on the other side
A decree that she won't be back
Except for the nights
When the memories replay
Moments no longer valid
