laws of gravity fight uncertainty but i sit here without a clue life had different meaning and i was only dreaming someone else came to her rescue now she's gone and i am too maybe she will want to have me near enough to feel unparted maybe she will ask me for some help to get her new place started maybe she will see me 'round and want to take a mid-day walk maybe just feel lonely and will want to talk with me in cold and darkest weather, the times we had together come to me and i smile to sleep then clouds dissipate and i soon re-awake to such a living tragedy i'm resolved to pondering maybe she will call me up to see if i am doing alright maybe she will remember the times when i would hold her so tight maybe she will think about the letters that i used to send someday change her mind and want to find me again they all say i'm wasting my whole life away but i don't care because i have this candle from our courting days and it's almost gone but dim hope flickers anyway maybe she will look at those old pictures and get teary-eyed maybe she will feel my lonely heartbeat and hear me cry maybe she will help me shovel out of this misery one day say she's sorry for giving up on me maybe she will
