MEL'S OLD MAN...
Shall I spin a tale of our beautiful romance?
Tell you, how I was yours upon first glance?
Talk about the splendid family we made?
Share memories together so they'll never fade?
No, I cannot do any of those things.
Truth is the only solace that I bring.
I loved you once deeper than most.
But our love died; you're chasing a ghost.
We both made mistakes that's true.
I spent many listless nights crying about you.
So I don't offer a hollow platitude.
Truly I'm sorry for the chaos we've accrued.
But our moment in the sun has now passed.
Far too much heartache has been amassed.
Now our differences are much to vast.
I am no longer with in your hands grasp.
It has nothing to do with any other.
One day you too will be able discover.
The happiness you think you seek.
Is not in the havoc you continually reek.
Find what will quench your ravenous soul.
No longer in pieces; filling the gaping hole.
You will always have a place in my heart.
Here is where we must finally depart.
