Here I sit alone In a dark room Staring at an empty page Trying to figure out What to say about you I stumbled upon a song I haven’t heard in Almost twenty years These words that were First sung from your lips You didn't write it And neither did I It's old and sad, like us I can still hear your voice After all this time And I wonder if you've forgotten it Or if you sing it still If not, for the first time in a long time And if it makes you Think of me too

Here I sit alone In a dark room Staring at an empty page Trying to figure out What to say about you I stumbled upon a song I haven’t heard in Almost twenty years These words that were First sung from your lips You didn't write it And neither did I It's old and sad, like us I can still hear your voice After all this time And I wonder if you've forgotten it Or if you sing it still If not, for the first time in a long time And if it makes you Think of me too
Inspired by the song Moving Pictures Silent Films by Great Lake Swimmers
