I've messed up my life I lost my son and my wife Never before, she walked out the door Without ever saying, "goodbye" (Without ever saying, "goodbye") And I just don't have a clue I'm broken and lost without you I've done it again, I've lied to my friend Why can't I just tell the truth? (Why can't I just tell the truth?) Maybe I'll sail along So maybe I'll tell you with a song What does it mean? Was it a dream, when we were happy? Life was serene When I got clean, and you finally had me There wasn't a day (Wasn't a day) That we wouldn't say, boy, are we lucky! But now that you're gone I'm writing these songs Trying to just make it through Without you...
