Time is no longer our friend,
And when I find my thoughts drifting,
They always return to you,
Thoughts of us,
Time spent with you.
And when I find my thoughts drifting,
They always return to you,
Thoughts of us,
Time spent with you.
No matter what,
No matter where,
Like a daily prayer,
You are always there,
In my minds eye,
Always at the forefront.
No matter where,
Like a daily prayer,
You are always there,
In my minds eye,
Always at the forefront.
Memories of you,
Of us,
Not obsessive anymore,
Youth destroyed that for me,
And in a way I’m glad.
Of us,
Not obsessive anymore,
Youth destroyed that for me,
And in a way I’m glad.
Nowadays I feel slightly less torn,
Still broken,
Always bruised,
Carrying on nonchalantly,
You know me,
I will never show how I truly feel about you.
Still broken,
Always bruised,
Carrying on nonchalantly,
You know me,
I will never show how I truly feel about you.
For I have layered on an armour built over the years,
Through it all…
I became strong,
Resilient,
A fighter,
Always thinking of you,
Of things we used to do.
Through it all…
I became strong,
Resilient,
A fighter,
Always thinking of you,
Of things we used to do.
I have glued myself back together again,
Slithers of my heart are clinging on,
I am ready for a new glorious day,
Until the dusk makes me forlorn.
Slithers of my heart are clinging on,
I am ready for a new glorious day,
Until the dusk makes me forlorn.
Whatever happens next,
And until my final breath,
You will always be my favourite ‘What if…’
And until my final breath,
You will always be my favourite ‘What if…’
