You once wrote me I was beautiful
You wrote that I was strong
But yesterday you left without a word
I guess your affection didn't last so long,

You should know it's not your fault we drifted
It's not your fault I keep going back
I understand you were trying to protect me
To keep me on the right track,

But somewhere in-between the arguing
Somewhere in-between your pain
I knew I had to take a step back
Our friendship I needed to limit, to restrain,

I don't expect you to understand it
I don't expect you to fully forgive
All I want is for you to be happy
For your new life at Uni to live,

And maybe one day we will  speak again
Maybe one day we'll sit back at the bank and smile
I don't expect it to be anytime soon
But I know I can wait a fair while,

I hope you don't leave me on your bedroom wall
I hope you take some of me in you mind
If ever you do find yourself thinking of me
Look out across the ocean

and you shall find.
