You go to bed alone

You learn to fall asleep alone
You learn to silence ticking clocks
You learn to turn the shades at 
night
And double check the locks

You learn to speak so calmly when
Your heart would like to scream and 
shout
You learn to smile and breathe and 
smile

You learn to live without

You find the coat and tie you 
thought you?d given to good will
You stumble along a long lost set of
 chess
You see him there in corners and in 
closets and on shelves
And truth be told you?d like to see 
him less

You stumble through the morning but 
you waken for the day
You tell yourself that all is going 
well
But now and then a sense of loss 
just slams you in the chest
You know that no one else can really
 tell
You make it all seem swell

You learn to count the quiet winds
An hour with no unprompted tears
And not to count the deadly days
As they fade into years

You learn to stand alone at last
So brave and bold and strong and 
stout
You learn to somehow like the dark
You even love the doubt
You learn to hold your life inside 
you
And never let it out
You learn to live and live and die 
and live

You learn to live without
You learn to live without
You learn to live without
