I decided to look all around She wasn't there. I searched in the sky and on the ground. She wasn't there. I thought I found her in my mind. She wasn't there The one I knew that was so kind. She wasn't there. I see not what I got As I fall back on the floor I got lost, at any cost Now I can't find her anymore From the day that I first saw her face Till the day she cut her hair I thought I found that holy place... But she wasn't there. My vision faded as I cried She wasn't there Her figure distorted as her memory died Without a care. I never wanted to cause any pain. Because I cared. But all I got was left out in the rain. She wasn't there. We all need something In this world Too keep us going As the years are unfurled But we're all deceived And so it goes. The poets sing "Time heals all things" But it seems so long ago.
