LYRIC FOR SALE

By Andy Shipp

[V1]

The car pulled up

On that night

You said, "I love you"

I said, "Have a good time

Don’t be late"

I watched you

Shut the gate

[C]

I’m sat on my chair

Silent, with a vacant stare

Waiting for you

Like I always do
TV’s on

Clocks ticking on

Something tells me

Something’s wrong

The night feels quiet

For too long

[V2]

I check my phone

Then check again

Every minute feels like ten
I hear a car

I hold my breath

Headlights pass

Then nothing’s there
Inside my chest

The silence spreads

Fear and dread

Are settling in

Where could you be?

[C]
I’m sat here
 In my chair

Frozen in vacant stare
Waiting for you

Like I always do
TV’s on

But i’m not there
Every sound

Pulls me in
Something’s wrong

Beneath my skin
The night’s gone still

For far too long

[B]
All that’s left

Are memories

Photos on the wall

Your laughter echoes
A roadside view

Flowers for you

To remind me

To remind me
Why did this happen?

I can’t let it go

[C]

I can’t sit
 In my chair

The phone stayed

Silent in my hand
Something was wrong

This night will

Never end

[Outro]

You said you

Wouldn’t be late

I thought you’d

Walk through the gate
Why did you go…


I’ll never let you go
