My Whole Wide World

(album: Labor Of Love - 1995)

You've always been a lousy liar honey
And the line is that you need some time alone
But there's a stranger who is waiting in his car around the corner
Well I guess from door to door you're on your own
Is he gonna help you find your new direction
Does he tell you not to feel too guilty girl
For you it seems so easy just some modern day solution
It's the end of my whole wide world

It's the end of my whole wide world
There'll be nothing left here when you're gone
The loneliness will linger on
'Til the end of my whole wide world

Well, I might as well burn this old house to ashes
It will never be a home for me again
But fire won't burn the memory of the life we shared together
It'll find some way to haunt me to the end
There is nothing I can say to stop you leaving
There is nothing you can do to heal my hurt
For you this is the first day of the rest of your life
It's the end of my whole wide world

It's the end of my whole wide world
There'll be nothing left here when you're gone
The loneliness will linger on
'Til the end of my whole wide world
