Today I'll Cry



Today I heard the front door close
you walked out of my life…
We both knew someone had to go
I couldn’t leave my wife…

We tried so hard to find a way       
            something to hold on to…               
Last night while looking in your eyes   
I knew it would be you…

You made the choice to set us free
how hard that must have been...
Today I’ll lay and cry a while
my mourning will begin...
