Lost All Company

My Sarah stumbles softly as were headed toward the car Four months to go til winter, she won't ever see the fall Had her arms wrapped around me as we made it down the stairs Every step so calculated beneath the fading summer air I never could imagine, I never dared to see What happens to a loving heart that lost all company It all came down so quickly, like the ticking of a clock Like a dog might run for freedom when the door becomes unlocked It was the early party of August, where we never see the rain Carrying pain the weight of freight aboard a Norfolk passing train I never could imagine, I never dared to see What happens to a loving heart that lost all company Now it's the wrong half of November, where the ground will start to freeze Took those men all they had to lay you down a couple feet I never will remember, what the priest did say It's hard enough just to leave, so what's the difference anyway That I never could imagine, I never dared to see What happens to a loving heart that lost all company I never could imagine, but it's easy now to see What happens to a loving heart that lost all company
