Dear Samantha, So Pretty In Pink Another dreaded moment came to pass and I'm wounded beyond repair All to familiar was that highway leading home The only company to console that empty feeling I had Were the hills that followed and the radio... I was an invisible passenger on this common path God, I've never known the silence to be so loud My heart took on a new level of sadness today And, lifelessly, I hung my head against the window looking out... If only I had one more day rested in the back of my mind And, continual shallow breaths never made it near deep With blurred vision the tears seemed to overwhelm my eyes The kind of cry where they never reach the cheeks... Every now and then I'd find a break in the hills And, I'd find her face in the middle of my stare The sun setting left pastels along the evening sky And, so pretty in pink was my baby there... Somehow, the hills would part for just a glance And, I just knew that sunset was meant for me Nature had a way of telling me she's never really gone That's when the pink would extend as far as I could see... Over that highway and the valleys she laid upon Somehow, her pink left a hint of gold on the pines And, when the road seemed to climb a little higher out there It made it so hard when I couldn't touch what's righteously mine... All at once the hills opened for what seemed a mile Her presence still within every breath I breathed And, when that sky changed to a much brighter shade I knew, I just knew, she was thinking of me... So, she followed me still and I never turned my head She was so pretty in pink on that soft blue bed Together we managed the distance until days end And, maybe when I travel that highway she'll find me again...
