lyrics

The Day I lost You
The day that I lost you
I floated out of myself
Frozen in time
I locked away the sunshine
As the nights grew longer
I lost my hunger for the living

The day that I lost you
I blackened the blue sky
I poisoned the morning dew
I trapped the birds that flew
Cursed the waking hours
Staring at the flowers in every room

The day that I lost you
Nobody was spared
Your brother hid from view
Your sister disappeared
And in the next room
Sits your father swaying to an aching tune

The day that I lost you
I shouted at the moon
I told him that I
Would kill him with my bare hands
And I screamed and I cried
As I fell beneath a splintering sky

The day that I lost you
You were in a pink dress
With little yellow flowers
In a layer of dust
That I brushed off gently
Arranged the fabric perfectly around where you lay

sings it though, it’s still unmistakeably Suzannah Espie

"There aren't too many songwriters able to match meaning with melody as well as Suzannah Espie"
