They loved each other
So why did they go
They didn’t have to do what they did,
Lying down in the snow.
If only she knew
What he told everyone
He never told her
She was his number one.
He knew all too well
How she felt for him
He took it for granted,
His hope grew dim.
They both thought there was no more
Never again could they be together
The chains that bound them
Were rusting in the bad weather.
One day she took her fate in her hands
To her there was no more
The sound rattled all around
As the picture of them smiled at her from the door.
That December night
A heavy snow fell
The clock struck his time
Out with the church bell.
Their notes were identical
Their messages the same
They regretted their mistake
When they took aim.
Their story tragic
Their love relentless
Their hope faded more and more
When their lies they didn’t confess.
Now they’ll never know
What was deep inside their hearts
But even though they’re far away
They’re never far apart.
