I tried to forget about all of you,
Your little bits and pieces,
I tried to ignore your leaving,
But now and then I get tiny traces.

So they tried to tell me to leave it alone,
"Don't think about it,
You'll forget it with time,
As you grow older and wiser,
You'll learn and you'll climb"
But I cannot learn,
I don't want to climb,
Because time doesn't heal,
And fate is just a mime,
Time leaves me asking why,
And where and how,
I haven't thought anything else,
Than how you let me down.

So I put on my coat,
And walk through the door,
I remember what you said to me,
The very last score,
All my memories of us are fading,
And I don't want them to go,
Maybe I asked for too much,
All those months ago.

Time won't pass this by,
And you've probably forgotten about me,
So I'll carry on here,
And mop up our debris,
Maybe this isn't fair,
Maybe I don't know what's wrong,
Never thought I'd be this way,
When you'd gone.

Now all I know is that,
I still feel the same as I did 5 months ago,
That time doesn't change anything,
It just helps us grow.
