I don't know if they suspect a thing
When they ask me why
I have all photos taken
Old and new and in a box I've hidden

I always say, as the truth that it is;
That once in a while, every now and then,
I feel the need for proof that once,

*All of it were real

I befriended the night,
He chased away my empty flight.
In return, I gave my share of good times
Deep into it, like it were a crime
Just as those small hands bring forth his end,
It's almost time to see an old friend.
The night is deep, the day is young
In between are secrets we never let slip from our tongue

Sometimes in my sleep I stand by the shore
Just as waves crash and soak my bedroom floor,
Nothing to lose, I let all of it through.
Riptides, they form as the waves do so too.
Just empty thoughts and somehow loosened faith,
Currents are strong, all my fears, they have bathed
Until I cease fire, my thoughts shall stay lulled
Still, I stood by—all washed out and left null

We were like dreams amidst the midnight cold
Silent and vivid and distant as told
By the golden sky, you squint your eye
Least did we know 'twas time for goodbye

There's no doubt;
By any chance I'd see you again
Walking by the street or by the one you love,
That waves would churn where the sea is calm
This time not by the hopes of having you back,
Maybe, just maybe of the jolt
That comes with the sight of what once was home
That has now become a distant abode

By all means, I'm letting you go

In case you come back
Remember all the times we had
And all the times you made me laugh
And try to remember the sparkle in my eyes I'd hoped you knew was yours

In case you come back
Take the time to think of old jokes
To the best ones, we almost choked
Remember all those empty rooms we turned into our escape

In case you come back
Remember all the dreams we had;
You in mine and I in yours.

Because in case you come back
I'll remember the times you've shut the door
How cold it was and how much I hurt

And in case you come back
I'll remember just how hard i fought
When all you did was turn your back
