Haunting Melody by Brenda Sparkman

As the mist keeps moving in from the sea,
It keeps gathering around my body so gracefully.
I hear a song once again I have heard many times before,
One we use to dance to so slowly around the floor.

A beautiful haunting melody from out of the past,
One about our true love we were so sure it would last.
I think back to all the wonderful days we spent,
The two of us together so completely content.

Last night you came home from work late again,
No explanation for me of where you had been.
You could not even bear to look at me,
If you had, there was nothing but my pain there to see.

I could smell the perfume when you walked in the door,
This wasn’t the first time, I had smelled it before.
In just a few days you say you will be leaving me,
Now I find myself here alone staring out at the sea.

How do I pick up all of the pieces of my broken heart,
I don’t know where to begin, how to even start.
I just know now somehow I must move on all alone,
Saying goodbye to the only love I’ve ever known.
