Faithful: My Written EP

Smoke Across The Ocean.

my love for you used to be bright.
nows it's just coming home drunk night after night.
I used to think that without you, I'd be alright.
that's before you took that 305 flight.
now I'm losing sleep.
now one waking me.
silent, nobody making a peep.
thinking to myself, how could I ever let her be.
I used to wish you'd go away.
even when we were lost in the fray.
I loved you all the same.
you tell me to move on.
but baby, I'm just not that strong.
is it so wrong, for you whole heart to be gone?

I know, I ran away.
and I pray each night, that your ok.
that you'd come back to me and stay.
call me each night, just to say "hey". At night on my screened in porch.
watching the guitar play and the hotdogs scorch.
still waiting for you to pull up in your Porsche.
see, the loss of you is constant trauma.
you spread rumors and cause drama.
never considering the karma.
I pull out malburro in your honor.
thinking about all the lost commotion.
I'm missing you, partner.
I'm talking about that "smoke across the ocean". the kind that causes pain.
for the ones who jump out of thier planes.
from Spain and back to Maine.
on Jeep to train.
I feel the blood drain.
I say "for you I smoke"
never wondering why you ever went M.I.A.
I choke, feeling broke.
I smoke like it's no joke.
I smoke for you, till I croak.
