Even though he shivers when she calls his name
Still he can't reveal himself, to ease her sorrows
Every day he comes home late, and looks away
Staring at the screen, with plans to change tomorrow
And he wants to say, what she needs to know
But he can't explain
He's at loss for words
Even when she speaks, he's disconnected
He knows what she's longing for, but won't console her
Every day she wishes for another way
Staring at the suitcase, packed to leave tomorrow
And she wants to stay, but she needs to go
As he drifts away
She's at loss for words
