The arms of the clock weigh heavy in my conscience
Reminding me of when it used to say
How much time I had left, not how much wasted
I look out to these vibrant skies
Seeing with the colors you gave me
Yet in the corners of the clouds there is grayness
A remnant of who we used to be
Moving on, finding someone else
They all seem to have your smile
And with every time I find love again
It's as if I just found you once more
I remember when you walked out the door
And the street lights shone brightly upon you
And your shadow crawled along the floor to me
To enter my mind, spinning into a memory
Last night I giggled with my new partner
Discussing the future and how we would walk it
And for a moment we settled, gazes meeting halfway
Then I saw the universe in her eyes
I saw you.
woke up this morning, trying to remember last night
still can't shake off the memory I put on
