Guess I Got It Wrong

Stick and frame, a patch of earth
Some china plates, a band of gold
A few shared things of little worth
And now they’re all that’s left to hold
She hides her tears, I do my best
As I pull slowly from the drive
Young in love, we lay undressed
Now we can’t meet each other’s eyes
Sad goodbyes, shattered dreams
Darker skies I don’t think I’ve seen
I thought love was just one sweet song
Guess I got it wrong
Houston tollway to I-10
Never looked this bleak before
Why’s the feeling never strong as when
You can’t have her anymore?
Sad goodbyes, shattered dreams
Darker skies I don’t think I’ve seen
I thought love was just one sweet song
Guess I got it wrong
