Who Is Going To Love Me Now, If Not You

(album: Wednesdays - 2020)

I see you in my mind on a train to Pennsylvania
It's Christmas and we're laughing and engaged
The light illuminates the countryside as we go speeding by
Your head is on my shoulder as it fades

And who
Who's gonna love me now
If not you?

The empty parts of me I left in your hometown in the bedroom of the house where you were raised
The pictures on the wall, your eyes are a history of kindness
Would've married you right then if you had asked
My life is just a tunnel to another tomb, just like that gown that time it passed

And who
Who's gonna love me now
If not you?

Like a sad cartoon, the ash returns to ashes
The dust returns to dust where you would lay
Used to sleep beside the angel
Now I'm just a stranger in a house with things I cannot throw away

And who's gonna love me now
Who's gonna love me now
If not you?
