Staring Right Straight In The Sun by Melodie Yvonne Ramey
I’m staring right straight in the sun
Wondering what on earth I’ve done
and now I guess you’ll never know me
I just wanted you to own me
Empty is as empty does
You swept me underneath your rug
You fall behind, I run in place
Hoping just to glimpse your face
Hopeless is as hopeless does
I’ll make it like it never was
and I’ll erase me from your history
Hoping that you won’t forget me
Staring right straight in the sun
Wondering what on earth I’ve done
and now I guess you’ll never know me
I just wanted you to own me
Staring right straight off in space
I let my mind eclipse your face
Just shadows of the you that knew me
Guess you thought you couldn’t lose me
Lonesome is as lonesome does
I swept me underneath my rug
I’m nothing now but broken memories
Out of tune and off key melodies
Empty is as empty does
You ran ahead, I fell in love
and now we’re just too far off track
I run away, and don’t look back
I’m staring right straight in the sun
I’m wondering what the hell I’ve done
and now I guess you never knew me
Guess you’re just not use to losing
Staring right straight off in space
I let my mind eclipse your face
Just shadows left of you that knew me
Guess you thought you couldn’t lose me
