The World Keeps Turning

Lombard street a car flips over.
People gather,
There are flashing lights,
The driver cries on someone's shoulder.
Is his friend alright?

Five blocks down a groom leans closer
As he starts to kiss his wife.
She's so happy that he chose her,
And it's in her eyes:
The best day of her life

As the world keeps turning
I know that you're gone,
And I'm finally learning
How I was wrong.

And it feels so different,
Without you I'm lost in it all.

Jamie is finally getting sober,
The social worker said she's doing fine.
Reading letters her kids wrote her,
She hasn't seen them in the longest time.

That's hard to understand
If there's a bigger plan
When you've got nowhere to go.

But the world keeps turning,
I know that you're gone
And I'm finally learning
How I was wrong.

And it feels so different,
Without you I'm lost in it all.

Sometimes I stumble and fall,
Sometimes I'm left feeling small.

You were too good for me,
I was too blind to see
That everything was my fault.

As the world keeps turning
I know that you're gone,
And I'm finally learning
How to be strong.

And it feels so different,
Without you I'm lost in it all.
