Inspired by Gary Allan and his songs.
How could you leave
with a smile on your face?
How could you move on
so easily from this place?
I'm still here
or don't you remember me?
This place isn't what
it used to be.
The pain is real but
they can't see it.
I'm frowning now
cause the smile don't fit.
I'm not the person
who used to laugh.
I don't remember
feelin like that.
I got that letter
in the mail.
Heard about your wedding,
the news is stale.
That suit is too much
for me.
I can't afford to be there
to see.
But I still know you
are smiling.
And I just can't
see it
through
the tears.
Why does it burn so much?
How can't you feel my touch?
Why do you have ring
on your finger
when I can't dream
alone, at night.
You got your happy ending
alright.
But I'm still here.
Or don't you recall?
You sent that invite
out last fall.
The church was huge
and your dress was grand.
I was cheap,
and looked so
bland.
I shouldn't be here.
I shouldn't be here
by your side.
But then you smiled
and I remembered why.
