The Bed

On his side of the bed

He's sleeping like a baby

Dreams are dancing in his head

Lying with his lady

It's a peaceful night

And everything's just fine

On his side of the bed

But on her side of the bed

Those big brown eyes are cryin

From the things he never says

Deep inside she's dyin

As she turns to face the wall

There's no love at all

On her side of the bed

If he'd just reach out

She'd forget about

All the times that he let her down

Oh but in his mind

Everything's alright

When the lights go out

Now on his side of the bed

He never even noticed

Her negligee of red

The very same one that she wore

The night that they were wed

But he never turned his head

To her side of the bed

If he'd just reach out

She'd forget about

All the times that he let her down

Oh but in his mind

Everything's alright

When the lights go out

Now on his side of the bed

He wakes up and turns to say I love you

But instead

All he finds are pages

Full of words she never said

And that's all she left

On her side of the bed
