Verse 1)
The sky is a bruised and empty gray
Another Sunday after the rain
I drove past all the happy houses,
Where families are getting on with things.
The world keeps spinning on its lonely axis
But my heart stopped on the day you left.
** (Chorus)**
And I stand at your grave alone
The flowers in my hand are cold as stone.
I want to say so many things,
But only silence answers me.
The wind whispers through the branches overhead,
A thousand things you've left unsaid.
** (Verse 2)**
I trace the letters of your name
Engraved and perfect, but it's not the same.
I remember the curve of your smile,
The sound of your laughter, all the while
Just a few feet beneath my shoes,
Is where all my best memories lose.
** (Chorus)**
And I stand at your grave alone
The flowers in my hand are cold as stone.
I want to say so many things,
But only silence answers me.
The wind whispers through the branches overhead,
A thousand things you've left unsaid.
** (Bridge)**
This is where the story ends,
Where the future fades and the present bends.
I was not ready to let you go,
But the stars, it seems, had other plans, you know.
Just a name on a piece of rock,
Watching the hands of a broken clock.
** (Chorus)**
And I stand at your grave alone
The flowers in my hand are cold as stone.
I want to say so many things,
But only silence answers me.
The wind whispers through the branches overhead,
A thousand things you've left unsaid.
** (Outro)**
The sun begins to set,
And the world forgets.
But I will never forget,
Standing here alone-alone- alone
