It was a grey sky
on a Monday
There was nothing more
I could say
So I called you
from Ohio
In a parking lot
of a motel
I remember
how you greeted me
Like you knew we were
not meant to be
On this phone
call after 2 years
Of the fighting of the
mad tears
Remember how I
broke your heart
After all that
we've been through
All the damages
I bestowed on you
All the jealousies
you engraved in me
The end was near
it had to be
So I called you
from Ohio
In a parking lot
of a motel
To say nothing and
yet everything
I remember I
was trembling
Remember how I
broke your heart
Remember how I
broke your heart
Now I'm drinking
to forget you
Spending money
got a tattoo
Stayed a weekend up
in Oregon
Bought a plane ride
to an island
But I stopped first
in Toronto
Met a man
who almost let me go
4 years later
he married me
I am happier
than I dreamed I'd be
So you see I
had to let you go
In a phone call
from Ohio
Filled with silence
and apologies
Still I loved you as
you loved me
Remember how I
broke your heart
