I felt quite lonely after I broke up with Zoe and then moved back home. Things were really getting to me and I didn�t feel like I had anyone to turn to.

There were two sets of footprints in the sand,
We walked together on the beach, hand in hand,
It seemed like nothing could tear us apart,
Yet something did and it broke my heart.

We sat on the beach, listening to the waves,
We explored miles of coastline, looking for caves,
My happiness taken away, and now I moan,
Because my arms are so empty and now I’m alone.

An empty heart can take a lot to cure,
Once it has felt love it wants more and more,
So is the glass empty or is it half full?
Would it have been better not to know you at all?

It’s not sympathy I’m after, that’s for sure,
I just wish that I knew why you closed the door,
Things aren’t so good and this has shown,
How horrible and sad it is to be alone.
