Though this life treated you like scum

you gave me the beat to my drum

you let your heart crack and bleed

and made me suffer and need

you shut out all who wanted to see you well

to the bottle you would scream and yell

yet underneath the surface of this all

was a woman trapped by the alcohol

a woman whose heart was as big as the sun

and really just wanted to have fun

her heart ached for me

she was so blind but i could see

she went to sleep

never to wake again

leaving me with haunting memories to keep

 

i miss you, thru the bad and good, you were my all
