Out of the blue you show up
You've been missing for so long
Where have you been

What, you don't know
        or won't tell

I've been needing you back

What, why don't you understand

I needed the safety of you
I needed the comfort you had surrounding you
I needed the confidence you gave me
I existed in your shadow

Wait, what do you mean
You left me so I could grow

I had no warning
I had no plans without you
I experienced so much life that was scary

Huh, you knew that would happen
I had to grow up in your absence
Why scare me like that
I needed you to show me the way

Wait....  Aren't you myself???
