Recovery




All I've ever wanted
All I've ever knew
All I'd ever felt there
Conspired to make me blue

Nothing ever after
Nothing late or soon
Nothing ever broke me
The way it did with you

The songs I sing are faded and abused
The audience is bored and not amused
The words I say are jarring and quite rude
Nothing works the way it did with you

The skies are dark and storms form up above
My heart is torn in absence from your love
This sepia has tinged my worldly view
And nothing works the way it did with you

Everything sharpens
Everything in view
Everything seems brighter
The sky returns to blue

No one hides their laughter
No one more or few
The world looks more like before
The way it did with you

Morning comes the sun begins to glow
I take it by the hand move to and fro
You leaving now has led to something new
Things now work the way they did with you

Face the day with bearing and good cheer
Sweet winds make gloom all but disappear
I know now I can look for something true
Since things now work the way they did with you

Things now work the way they did with you
