Long ago when people had time
They would sit down and compose a line
A pen in hand, nib dipped in ink
With friends far away they'd form a link
Some wrote letters of a superior kind
That stuck around and played on the mind
They type you kept hidden in a box
Away form prying eyes you'd keep them locked
They were not mere words, they were confessions of love
As if the angels themselves were speaking from above
A heart entirely poured into every phrase
About a moment, a touch, a feeling, a gaze
So this, for you, is my love letter
Let's hope the next is slightly better

In the rare silent moments
When I'm entirely alone
A single thought consumes me
It makes my mind it's home
That thought is of him
How he used to feel
How beautifully destructive we were
And in that moment you're real
But of course you're not
We are a distant past
I'm glad it's finally over
Never wanted it to last

I'm still your greatest fan
Of that I have no doubt
But my respect for you was lost
As soon as you walked out
I am now the parent
And you my hopeless child
I once had hours to give to you
Now seconds aren't worthwhile
Where has my best friend gone
Who is this empty shell
The hero that you were to me
Gone without farewell

I looked for you...
I looked for you
In every flower
Or star
In every night club
Or bar.
I looked for you...
I looked for you
In every stranger
I'd kiss
In every old friend
I'd miss.
I looked for you...
I looked for you
In every hour
I waste
In every problem
I faced.
I looked for you...
I looked for you
In every bottle
Of beer
In every growing
Fear.
I looked for you...
I looked for you
In every cigarette
I smoked
In every moment
I joked.
I looked for you...
I looked for you
But what
I have found
Is much better
Than how it might sound.
I looked for you...
I looked for you,
You never appeared
And once I stopped looking
My mind got cleared.
I looked for you...
I had to stop looking
To realise that
Myself was the one
I was desperate to find.

It fills me up with fury
A cold and silent rage
That spills out only from my eyes
And now onto this page
The anger is not because of her
Nor is it because of you
It's simply because you have a past
That makes the hate seep through
I should look at the present
And the future we have ahead
Forget the ghosts we both have
Dwell on us instead

There are times and moments brief
Full of woe, sorrow and grief
But these moments tend to flee
When 'I' alone turns to 'we'
Tears are gone replaced by smiles
Only laughter heard all the while
And if somehow the dark creeps back
We'll find the light and get back on track
Ours is one to keep and treasure
I'll wish it that way almost forever
