The Life in Him

She looked in his eyes again
and she couldn't remember when
the last time she saw life

He wasn't dead inside
something just wasn't right
She could tell by his voice
that he made the clear choice
to stay with the booze tonight

He could tell she had enough
but he wasn't going to give up
And she watched every day
that he wasn't okay
and living was going to be tough

Look in his eyes and you will find
that the memories of life he left behind
