The first day I'd left,
you felt the sunshine
Like darkness had traded to a new light
But your heart that I know
will be lonesome
now I'm gone
The first day I'd left,
you said it was like thunder Like the skies opened
and your mind
felt clear
But your heart that I know will be lonesome
now I'm gone
The first week you left,
I felt the fire Of you running away,
leaving me to burn
But your heart that I know
will be lonesome now I'm gone
Day
after day,
your smile never fades From my dreams,
from my dreams
Our future's unaligned,
but we still got time
To change
The first month you'd left
turned like autumn
Trees show me the beauty
of letting things go
But your heart that I know
will be lonesome
now I'm gone
The first year you'd left
felt like winter
Dead flowers blew away,
ready for spring
But your heart that I know will be lonesome
now I'm gone
But your heart that I knew
might be lonesome now I'm gone
