He sat alone in the night

On the banks of a river

Deep in the Heart of Texas

Staring up into the sky

Reaching out to the air

As if trying to reach her

Through the miles that kept them apart

Heart Broken

Where does he go

As he sits alone in the quiet

Is he seeing her face in the stars

Re-living a memory

He misses of her

Does he try to win her back

In this place he goes

Do they live happily ever after

In this quiet view he stares

Where is it he goes

As he stares upon the moon

The moon is out full tonight

His Heart is in pieces

He is not out for the world to see

Chasing a memory

Drowning in sorrow

A knot reaches his throat

The river flows below his feet

Alone and cold

He snaps out of it

He is back in the present

She is not there

And it is time

To let the sun rise

The moon is gone

As surly as she is gone

He misses her

But won’t show it

Say it out loud

He simply sits

Alone in the night

On the banks of a river

Deep in the Heart of Texas

Where he goes to a quiet place

On the inside

Staring into space

Where does he go

On the inside

To miss her this much

What does he see in her
