I Love You....
Written by: Stu - 1980


I walked into a house that was no longer of mine
our relationship could've stood the test of time
Our fights and rows didn't break us apart
But I stare out of the window not knowing where to start

The house is so cold and quiet at night
and I know no matter what, I can't put it right
Situations have changed and you've gone away
I have to rebuild my life, live day by day

The world isn't fair, you don't get to choose
why is it that someone, always have to lose
the sky has gone dark, its starting to rain
Like the tears in my heart burning with pain

There were so many good days and plenty of bad
and those silly things, which just drove you mad
People knocked and pushed attacking with guile
but you made them pay, with a single smile

Its been six years now and I know every day
why did you have to go, why couldn't you stay
it hurts me so much, and I feel all alone
This house where I stand, no longer a home

Your spirit, your joy, your love of art
all tidied away and hidden in my heart
A friend, a guide, my confident
everything to me, all I'd ever want

What do I do now, you can't be replaced
my anxieties and fears, they must be faced
though I fight with myself, direction I lack
Now I realise that you're not coming back

So I scowl and curse to god up above
That I only have a grave, to direct my love
She was so good, no-one better there could be
You killed two of us, taking my sister from me
