Hanging Off

Let go they say
to let go I pray
but I think more of you each and every day
as time passes the feeling gets stronger, time can pass but... love will forever stay

I want you to be here
but you made me shed tears and now I'm chugging down pints of beer
to drown my sorrow
hoping these thoughts will be gone by tomorrow

Love and pain
make me think
was there anything under that rain?
Is this my brink? Should I hide my feelings under the sink?

I went down to my knees to ask of you... Will you marry me?
Now you left me to laugh with him hysterically
then I went to my knees to ask of you... Will you stay with me?
Now you'll never see me... except hanging off... the hanging tree
