I’m just a number. That’s all that I’ll be. Left in the background of what we used to be. You’ll count and you’ll add, forgetting our prime And I’ll be locked in here, without a cosine. I wish I could subtract from the memories we made. But numbers are constant and you made the grade. You've moved on to new ones, as a counter does do But I am affixed to your number two. If only I could be a letter instead I’d spell out the feelings you left in my head But I’m just a number with a value of none Looking for someone to complete the sum.
