In Death I'll Depart

Once I had it all figured out
I was country with suit, tie and wingtips polished
Wealth flowed naturally to me

You shared a piece of my soul
I finished your smiles, and you purred my contentment
Love was our electric circuit

You turned lovely day to stormy night
By sending me away you ripped out my heart
Crushed my confidence, my future

I have lain lifelessly numb ever since
Fearful to feel once again, to love and yearn
Until in death I'll depart
