Cold damp days
as she ran through the maze
of the feelings I'd buried deep within
We thought we were going steady,
still her conscience growing heavy,
couldn't bear the silent pounding of my sins,
Mary katlyn, why'd you leave?
I can't stand another night alone
I'll get by with a new start
but I can't stand a broken heart
just when I thought
we were on a roll
And she said I would always feel like home,
But not the one she fled when she was 17
Never cared where I came from, I'll take the man that you've become,
She whispered softly
The most honest she'd ever been
Mary katlyn, why'd you leave?
I can't stand another night alone
I'll get by with a new start
but I can't stand a broken heart
just when I thought
we were on a roll
Mary katlyn please believe me
there's a few last words I never said
I'll just write them in a letter, hoping somehow they sound better,
dripping ink and not just spinning in my head
Mary katlyn, why'd you leave?
I can't stand another night alone
I'll get by with a new start
but I can't stand a broken heart
just when I thought
we were on a roll
Mary katlyn please believe me
there's a few last words I never said
I'll just write them in a letter, hoping they just don't sound bitter
dripping ink and not just spinning in my head
