Lyrics
But I do think of her
Standing in that parking lot
The stars are out, night drops down on her
She is alone again.
She’s alone again.
She holds his cooling dinner in her lifted hand.
Something he just might like
Sweet or salty, no one will eat it now.
She looks for him in darkness,
stands alone now once again
tries to see where he might have gone,
where could he go,
She looks for him in darkness,
stands alone now once again
tries to see where he might have gone,
where could he go, without her.
