I don't know why I came here.
By Express

 

I don't know why i came here.
it's been two weeks since i saw you last.
The lingering scent of your perfume
taunts my already aching soul

I dont' know why i came here.

Dark rain clouds start to form on the horizon,
ready to drench the land with their sorrow.

...The rain begins to fall.
I've been kneeling here
in the mud for three hours now...

I don't know why i came here.
I guess it was to find some
sort of spark or touch that
would somehow find its way across time...

...to find me.
To comfort me.

I don't know why i came here.
I was hoping you'd be here
to hold me and tell me everything
would be ok the way you used to.

...I sit and trace the letters
in your stone with my finger tips.

I don't know why i came here.
I half expected to see you here,
waiting for me - But your not here,
there is no feeling of closeness like so many promised.

...I was so eager to find you.

I don't know why i came here.
The rain stops but the coldness remains.

...But your not here.

I don't know why i came here.

I guess it was to see you.
To hear you say
you loved m one last time.

I dont' know why i came here.
I don't know if i'll be coming back.
My heart aches,
I'm so lost.

...I don't know where else to look for you.

I don't know why i came here.
I kiss the name on your grave stone.
I have to go now mija.
I love you, I always will.
