TRAIL OF DUST

Scattered pictures lying next to me
images of what we used to be
nothing but fragments of a love gone wrong
why does your memory have to last so long?

Only torturous memories to keep me going
but i keep them still fully knowing
i should have let go long before now
but my heart won't give up nor knows how.

it still clings to the scattered fragments of what used to be
that have been tossed to the wind, and away from me
my soul is reaching for someone new
but my heart still holds on close to you

Why do i still think of you night and day?
Why won't you let me have the chance to say
everything you said you needed to hear
i only wish you were still near

i've desperately been seeking someone new
but no one seems to be as strong as you
i wish i could get over this
All i want is the person i miss

Isn't good-bye enough?
Why do i still chase after your trail of dust?
My heart is reaching for someone new
but my soul still holds on to you.
