Absent.

I miss you,

To bad to even explain,

I try to fill my time with new guys,

The whole time thinking about the one that got away,

And I'll admit this is all new for me,

Loving you always came so easy,

Losing you wasn't the same for me.

I learned quick that you play for keeps,

You taught me slow and steady wins the race,

and how I loved the chase,

You kept my interest,

Kept me close,

I thought you were all I needed to stay afloat,

I learned from my mistakes,

and I can honestly say,

I miss you a little to much to be comfortable with anyone else,

I don't want to love you like this,

I just want you to come back home.
