From here

From here


Two blocks away is the place
Where I sit for hours and wait
Maybe say a few words sometimes
I really don't want to talk at all

Six blocks away is the river
Where I walked alone and prayed
Write your name here and there
Laugh awhile before the tears came

Ten blocks away is the bar
Where I first heard his name
Left with my head hanging low
Vowing never to return to that place

Eighteen blocks away is my room
Where I hide my tears and pain
Pour my heart into every word
Pour my love into every page

I stood there alone so many nights
Wondering why it turned out this way
Looking north of here down the street
Where another feels your love not me
