I Cannot Cry
I sit on the porch now, overlooking the yard and the drive
And you pulling away for the last time.
It�s hard to see you thru all of the hurt that is covering my eyes.
I won�t cry until you are gone is what I tell myself
I won�t let you see me break down is how I feel
I wait and the tears won�t come
You are long gone now.
I saw you drive down the street and turn the corner
You are gone forever
The tears may come now
But they won�t
I cannot cry for the one who left me
I cannot cry for a trust that was broken
I cannot cry for a love that was lost
And I cannot cry for someone that will never be back
It�s been hours now since I saw you leave
Since I waited for the tears to fall
And still nothing.
I still sit on the porch
Where I last felt your arms around me
Where I last felt your lips upon mine
And where my last memory of you lies
