I was doing great,
Till you called me.
A feeling rushed which hadn't in a while,
I was doing great.

I kept staring at it,
Maybe it will ring again.
When it didn't, old memories filled me.
I was doing great.

Something told me you wanted to speak.
Something told me you didn't.
Was it for real or was it a dream,
Anyway, I was doing great

We were perfect, but the time wasn't
You were a sprinter, I was a jaywalker
We got tangled, unwilling to part
I was doing great

Everything got sidelined, like you in past
Numb feeling came back to life
But then it rang again
I was doing great

It rang and it stopped
It was surely an accident
But you called when I was dreaming of you
I was doing great

Should I write back,
If yes, the what?
Will you reply? If yes, then what?
I was doing great

You wrote me it was a fluke
I agreed to what I was told
I hoped for something else
I was doing great

It has happened before:
Us getting back.
Never worked, will not work.
I was doing great.

We decided we might consider
If stars and planets align,
If I see you again, I hope to make you mine
I was doing great

You said I can call you
Whenever I want
I am too afraid,
But I was doing great.

Going through the letters and diaries
To revisit the old days
I was smiling but the fact was
I wasn't doing great
