Your favorite thing to do was watch the strangers throwing frisbees in the park You died at 26 of undiagnosed arrhythmia I died at home in the dark
When I arrived in the afterlife, your smile lit up the howling void "You're finally here!" you held me tight, but I knew one thing we couldn't avoid
Eight years of frantic dreams and youthful highs Versus forty-seven years of loving sighs [Eternity amplifies our worst intents] I have to make a choice between two best friends May this bizarre afterlife love triangle end
Your favorite place was a quiet room with a chessboard and a tall white wine You held me close as my spirit left my body After a full life at seventy-nine
You showed up at the right wrong moment Our lips deep engaged in a kiss "I always knew this would break my heart" You said, "but not shatter like this"
That was the longest night, the darkest fight What does the dawn owe to the moonlight? The past fights the present in black and white You're treating me like a copyright!
Well, we said til death do make us part Never dreamed we'd be put through a second start Now there's three shattered pieces of two broken hearts Who once said til death do make us part!
Guess it's easy to make an arrangement with too much time on your hands You get me Monday and Saturday The other five days you make plans
Sometimes I catch you crying when you think I'm asleep, sometimes you stare off in a haze Guess nobody got exactly what they wanted But is that never not the case?
