As time slips by
And the heart heals the wounds
I tell myself now
That it's okay to think of you
So I close my eyes
And I go back back to that place
Wait, something is wrong here
Why can't I see your face?
On the rooftop, on a cloudless night
You a shadow, me a haze
I remember hugging you tight
But why can't I feel the embrace?
Was it not all your fault?
I thought you parted ways
And yet, as we held hands,
I see I left some space
Every time I looked into your eyes
Or told you that I care
Or pulled you closer and stole a kiss
Or when we lay next to each other, bare
Your memories shall remain my penance
Because I was never really there.
