you called me by the name I told you

you were there in my loneliness

how can I forget

the girl that lived
in the middle of nowhere

I know nothing about her

she goes house to house
she smokes and doesn't eat well
I wish I knew where she was now

I still remember
thinking we were invincible
in our small ways

you walked me with me in the autumn
how many years did I let go

you found someone else

I see you everyday
with your boyfriend
he makes you smile

I see you with your friends
they make you laugh

it's so hard to let go
but I don't fit inside your world anymore

I can't let you go
excuses
making up more excuses

we we're something
I can't forget

if I let you go
can I still remember

every little thing we ever did
