Lyrics
Pull up the covers
She's not here tonight
Can't hold back the fear
She won't be back this time
I still hear her laughter
It echoes in my mind
Silence fuels the emptiness
And this hurt I feel inside
She walked out the door, I don't know
If she'll be back tomorrow
I still believe she loves me
I feel it when I close my eyes
She walked out the door, I don't know
If she'll be back tomorrow
I still believe she loves me
I know that love can compromise
She told me over dinner
At Morton's late last night
"Although I love you dear
We just can't share this life"
She said that her religion
Could not accept another kind
Despite her parents prejudice
She'd rather leave than live a lie
