Empty tomorrow
©2019TonyFallon0228
You know I have loved you for most of my life
At least since I can remember
Then I loved you more once you became my wife
That day long ago in September
Over the years we shared sorrow and delight
And our pains and aches
We were not angry when retiring at night
And we know we both made mistakes
People marry without many directions
Or a "How to do it book"
That would point out corrections
There are more details on how to be a cook
There's no quiz or interviews
A license for a few bucks is all you need
It's easier to get than one for catching blues
There are no rules and regulations to read
How can a love that sizzled?
And was so easy to maintain
suddenly have fizzled?
A love I thought would never wane
your coldness came so unexpected
No smiles and your eyes are not aglow
you seem so unconnected
Your heart could be empty tomorrow
At least since I can remember
Then I loved you more once you became my wife
That day long ago in September
Over the years we shared sorrow and delight
And our pains and aches
We were not angry when retiring at night
And we know we both made mistakes
People marry without many directions
Or a "How to do it book"
That would point out corrections
There are more details on how to be a cook
There's no quiz or interviews
A license for a few bucks is all you need

A love I thought would never wane
your coldness came so unexpected
No smiles and your eyes are not aglow

Your heart could be empty tomorrow
