The ambulance left a while ago
A couple cop cars waiting for a tow truck
Lights flashing caught my eye
But it was all over by the time I drove by

For somebody somewhere it’s sinking in
Life will never be the same again
An hour ago there was nothing wrong
Now someone’s wondering how they’re gonna go on

Maybe you’re looking out the window at a traffic light
Wondering how you’ll ever make it through the first night
Wish I could reach you from down the road to let you know

It will be okay
It won’t feel this way
Someday

Carnations send me to that night
The ones with red on the edges and the middle white
Everybody trying to smile at me
Wondering what to say or how to be

But I think the glory of the road is plain
To the heart that’s scoured out with pain
So I send this to you once again

It’ll be okay
It won’t feel this way
Someday

Someday
Someday
