Without a Trace

as she slept  
he fled home
then got a ticket    
and cought a plane  
 
he couldn't  
call her phone  
he loved her but  
it was too late  
 
his narrow escape  
would be blown  
and he'd be arrested  
for robbing that bank  
 
he could feel it  
deep in his bones  
he would forever be  
haunted by her face  
 
and her, by the
combat zone  
her man created  
outside that bank  
 
the job was his last  
before taking it slow    
but two dead cops    
changed his fate  
 
she never forgot  
waking up alone  
without a goodbye  
without a trace
