The Space in Between or The Photos of Us
Meant this as a song but thought I'd share here:
Do I learn to laugh or cry?
Will my love live or would it die?
I guess I could be
In the space in-between
Do I despise a winter's day?
Or are my troubles from yesterday?
Suppose it would seem
I'm in the space in-between
This house has one-too-many
pretty horses on its walls
Shining in the sunlight
As they run from hall to hall
But the space between their wooden frames
is all that I recall
Hanging there gathering dust
Are the photos of us
To the day it's been ten years
So much whiskey and wasted tears
And I wonder where you'd be
If not the space in between
This house has one-too-many
pretty horses on its walls
And I thought I'd be over you
And finally standing tall
But the space between their wooden frames
Reminds me of the fall
Hanging there gathering dust
Are the photos of us
