The Bones Are Good

Made my way out, late on a Friday

my friends all say, they think it's time

A local bar, a private party

ice cold patron and a couple limes

Nobody told me you were invited

no-one mentioned, so imagine the surprise

To see you with that girl, wearing my diamond

and the dreams that you promised to me, in her eyes

*

Now my heart aches to the bone

So, I force a smile, as you walk my way

I say, I'm happy for you, tho' I was just headin home

while every inch of me is beggin me to stay

*

The first time that I met you

the colors seemed to change

I saw myself in a different view

my whole world rearranged

But too good to be true, was the definition of our love

you moved on, leaving me to wonder why

Tonight, hopes ended, with the brush

of goodbye

*

Now my heart aches to the bone

I force a smile as you walk away

I say, I'm happy with me, as I go home alone

while every inch of me longs to be okay
