Lyrics

CAN'T ERASE - Pat McWilliams

VERSE 1
It's been 2 years now , but I still can't seem
To find the strength to wipe this message clean
Of the words that I last heard from you
Babe I'm running late but I'll be home soon

I play it over and over like a favourite song
So in that moment I don't feel you're gone
To hear your voice helps me see your face
Oh that's something that I can't erase

CHORUS
Can't erase the blue of your eyes
Or your reassuring smile
Can't erase the night, you said yes
And how you looked in that white dress
Or your lipstick on the coffee cup left on the table that day
That's something that I can't erase

VERSE 2
So as I'm walking through these memories
Slowly good ones stay and the sad ones leave
I'm done with looking for somebody to blame
Oh that's something that I can't erase

CHORUS
Can't erase the blue of your eyes
Or your reassuring smile
Can't erase the night, you said yes
And how you looked in that white dress
Or your lipstick on the coffee cup left on the table that day
That's something that I can't erase

Can't erase the blue of your eyes
Or your reassuring smile
Can't erase those tears filled with joy
As you held our baby boy
Or the scent of your perfume on your clothes where they still hang
That's something that I can't erase

So as I'm walking through these memories
Slowly good ones stay and the sad ones leave
