You weren't there all that much when I was growing up,
and my feelings for you I have kept shut up.
But I miss you, I miss you, I miss you like mad.
Oh I so wish I could tell you all these feelings I have.
I've had therapy and help for all the years of pain.
I just hope that one day we can gain.
Something better than what's gone before.
But I can't talk to you, as I feel I'm a bore.
Your world is so busy, and you have a new life,
new kids and a new wife.
I want to be a part of it, but try as I might.
I just don't fit in, it doesn't feel right.
It's such a shame though, and I know I'll regret.
The time that we've lost and the memories all spent.
I've moved on now and changed.
Though I still love you, it'll never be the same.
The past is the past, it's history now.
I still wish that I could change it somehow.
I'm as bad as you for not keeping in touch.
It still doesn't mean I don't love you this much.
To the moon and back and then some more.
All around the universe on a magical tour.
I get sad sometimes when of these things I think.
Maybe that's what's driven me to drink...
For now I'll continue to just write away.
It's the only way I know to get my thoughts stop to play.
I feel bad, for I know, I'm going to regret what I've lost.
What we've missed out on, what it may cost.
One day I know you'll be gone from this earth.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dirt.
Maybe tomorrow I'll pick up the phone.
Give you a ring, see how you're getting along.
I should do this, I know I must.
Our relationship has gone to rust.
Oxidized over the years.
This has always brought me to tears.
Oh well, what more can I say?
I love you, you love me, at the end of the day.
We just find it hard to express our feelings I guess.
At least to one another at best.
Here it is now, down in black and white.
Whether or not you see it, it's said and goodnight.
