This is about parting ways
It’s been a long time since you left
Month’s maybe even years,
But your hair’s still everywhere
On my pillows and my socks
By the strands and by the locks
That is all that’s left of you
Because you’re gone
Out of my life with the toss of a toothbrush
There are no letters in my mailbox
No voice after the tone
Only your hairs to remind me
That it’s years since you’ve been gone
Gone with the toss of a toothbrush
Gone with the memories that fade
Gone with the future and tomorrows today
Gone with the hair that will never turn gray
There are no candles burning
And not a ribbon round a tree
Besides your hair nothing reminds me
That there was a you and me
Gone with the toss of a toothbrush
Gone with the toss of your hair
