I thought I saw you in a crowd
I wonder did I say your name out loud
The beating of my heart like a melody
My thinking of you stirring up old memories
It made me wonder why our relationship did not last
I just hope I learned some lessons from the past
I was so young
You were my first love
Things seemed to be going too fast
I was unsure how to communicate that to you
You also said that in the near future you would have to care for your brother and sister, your Mother's condition was so severe
I was afraid of caring for those children that were half grown and who were not my own
I now think I could have done it for you and with your help
I know that I can not get a second chance with you
I am happy for you that you have a family that Loves you so much
I wish that we had kept in touch throughout the years
I think everyone needs more friends to share happiness and tears and fears with.
I miss most of all the friendship we used to have
It was not you that I saw in the crowd it was a case of mistaken identity
