We made a promise
We wore the rings
Was Lost in your eyes
And the swirl of the strings
The Magic of making
A life that we'd love
But thats a life that never was
I wanted a family
A house full of love
Walls lined with memories
A place just for us
But most days its empty
Just me and the ghosts
Of the children I'd carry
But maybe I won't
Called up the counselor
Got us a priest
Someone to put us back in one piece
Desperate to fix what I didn't break
Came with one bag, now I'm leaving with eight
So what happens now
So what now
What now
What now
Boxed up the memories
Dry cleaned the dress
You got your half
And I took what was left
If I had it my way
I would've stayed
And held onto hope
That you would come 'round someday
But you made your mind up
The dream's dead and gone
And I have to start over
As a party of one
There's freedom and terror
New life with old sting
The chance to start over
Or do the same thing
So what happens now
So what now
What now
What now
Sad songs and take out
Silent drives home
Black coffee at midnight
Living alone
Might be more quiet
It's a sigh of relief
Now I'll start finding Who I'm meant to be
