The Only Way

you had such a lovely crooked smile
and blue eyes that were gray when it was raining
and i still have the bracelet with the gold
and ivory clovers that you made me

it was the only way
it was the only way
it was the only way

someone said you left there just in time
when i was on the other side waiting
and i can see you standing with your suitcase
in the lamplight there without me

it was the only way
it was the only way
it was the only way

funny how the details never fade
the names of where we were
and what we did there
but all i have are spaces emptied
interrupting memories without you

it was the only way
it was the only way
it was the only way
it was the only way
it was the only way
