I still remember
As if I could forget
You haunt me

In my sleep and in my mind
You're always there
But you're never here

This heaviness won't stop
Can we go back can we move forward
Whatever it takes I'll do it

I don't want to live without you now
So I'm living for next time
To never lose you again

my own heart didn't come back to me

I let him in, he burned my heart
So that I couldn't go on without
He was so much more than a mere phase
He was the kind of love that I know will last through time, silence, and space

I don't know how I got here
Waited so long and fell so fast
I've never wanted anything so bad

He was so many things
He was like a dream
Coming alive for a time

Nevermind
I carried on for quite some time
With the thought of you nestled within my mind
So blissfully unaware of the bitter truth
You had long since left me far behind
I'm slowly becoming a landmark
On our overgrown path
A dying tree, solemn and silent
A boulder among the tall grass
One others can come and go from
Or simply walk past
Everyone wants someone
To call their very own
Everyone longs for someone
Who won't leave them alone
Now you're gone
And all I know
Is that when I was with you
I was home

He was a faster than I can control kind of feeling
I was with him until the summer ended
The love I was told wasn't possible
That love I was always looking for, but gave up hoping for
And he was that and he was real

He was the one you sneak behind your parent's backs for
The one your friends question your judgement over
The one you can't keep your heart from
The one you don't want to leave for a second
And when he leaves you forget how you ever breathed before
And I'll become a shadow if he becomes a memory

Life hurts and it's beautiful
It's simple, but it's a big deal
And you're the kind I can't forget
Not today or tomorrow, not just yet
