It seemed to me I had everything
the girl the gold watch and love
the glow in your eyes was a passion,
the girl the gold watch and love
the glow in your eyes was a passion,
I could never have enough of
Then one night it all came unraveled
caught me totally off my game
I saw the glow gone, it started to dawn
somehow I had extinguished the flame
So, tonight I’ll be marking my calendar
for the anniversary of agony
A jagged x mark, ugly and stark
another year passed painfully
You said you’d always care about me,
but, I knew then that the love had died
It burned out that day, just faded away
since then there’s been nothing inside
So tonight I’ll be marking the calendar
with an empty dinner plate set by mine
I will go on this way, as I do every day
in this make believe where all is fine
