Away Forever Lyrics

I miss the man in your locket

Cause that’s the man I used to be

I left my heart and your name next to mine

A scar upon that willow tree

Now I’m married to this moving

And staring at these hotel walls

I can’t believe I left your warm embrace

For this black and empty highways call

Now I’m a teardrop from your eye

Where I can touch your face again

And taste your skin one last time

Before I’m wiped away, away forever

We used to sparkle like a diamond

I should have put one on your hand

But I just, I filled my pockets full of fool’s gold

Just like a fool, I did not treasure what I had

And now I’m a teardrop from your eye

Where I can touch your face again

And taste your skin one last time

Before I’m wiped away, away forever

Now you’ve grown roots like that willow

And branches of tears raining down

But all I feel beneath my knees

Is a thousand miles of shaky ground

And now I’m a teardrop from your eye

And here I touch your face again

And taste your skin one last time

Before I’m wiped away, away forever
