Unnatural skies drift away calmly
Behind the trees right before my eyes
After that it gets dark rather quickly

This changing of the weather brings a lack of hope
As my thoughts drift away
To us sitting in the south end of town
And what you said that day

I've never seen that look in his eyes before
I should have died he said, eyes fixed on the floor
I've never seen that look in his eyes before
I should have died he said thinking of her

Just as soon as the light changed
He was smoking and laughing again
Reminding me of years ago
And telling me to never get old

Slowly the cancer wins
The cigarettes probably let it in
Slowly the cancer wins
Chemo doesn't work radiation was a sin

I've never seen that look in his eyes before
I should have died he said, eyes fixed on the floor
I've never seen that look in his eyes before
I should have died he said thinking of her
