I was a flight risk, afraid of fallin

Hers mine and his

As the mysteries of the envelope unravel I remember what memories to cherish

It makes me happy, no hard feelings anymore

The words are life as they speak the past

A smile as I pass a picture, I laugh as I remember a word

A ring on my finger that October evening

the shine from our smiles brighter then the diamond

A walk down the aisle in May

A future we didn't expect

That old blue house in the middle of town came with so little

And we took so much away from it

As the grass grew high and we refused to cut it,

the kitchen rang with smells of truth.

I haven't forgotten the long nights awake,

or the song on the radio that took my breath out from me

I still smell the odor from the roughed up carpet

And the roof that took to long to stay put.

I recall the beginning and now to the end

Our little blue house changed so much as we did too

The laughs of guests, the calls from friends, the nights alone

The tears, the change, the hurt

It's all over it's gone now

I haven't moved my feet back even if i've wanted

And you haven't even looked back

It was good those years together

But I see the change in you

I see the change in me

Although the house is not ours any longer

It doesn't need us , just like you didn't need me

But when I look back, I smile, I remember

And think of only one thing to say.

Thank You.
