World Before And After

I lie awake, she leaves her footprints in the dark
Her scent is on my soul
Her path leads to my heart
I've got to re-learn what it means to be alive
I'll make some small repairs
And hope I can survive
Now I'm looking at the Moon but it's not the same
Just pieces of my heart remains

I burned the pages in the chapter
The world before and after losing you, losing you
You took the music and the laughter
The world before and after

I play the part and pantomime my old routine
I sleepwalk through each day
Pretend it's all a dream
I go to places hoping I might find you there
My friends they shake their heads
And try not to stare
Now I'm doing everything but medicate myself
Try and walk the streets as someone else

I burned the pages in the chapter
The world before and after losing you, losing you
You took the music and the laughter
The world before and after

Shadows and light, day turns to night
I replay it all in my head
The vision is clear, then it all disappears

I burned the pages in the chapter
The world before and after losing you, losing you
You took the music and the laughter
The world before and after
Losing you
I burned the pages in the chapter
The world before and after losing you, losing you, you, you, you
