I pretend I don't mind
But my bed has memory
When I'm up late at night
You're still sleeping next to me

And all the things we did
They turned into our house
And all the plans we had
They turned into a better now

Your name slips through my lips
But you're no longer here
And you're not really coming back
All you left me with are memories

It's been 2 years
Since I last saw you
What were the odds
That I would find you

You smiled like that first day
I still could feel your warmth
Tried hard to play it cool
Like you were never mine

And all the moments that we shared
Didn't seem like wasted time
Never thought that I'd still care
But I see your face when I close my eyes

And suddenly you are here
And this time you're setting me free

Is there something important missing in my life?
Lately I ask myself that question almost every night
I don't know the answer and don't want to find out
'Cause what if it's true and I'm not ready for this hunt

These days I find myself thinking more about you
I thought you went away I thought you already left
But my mind keeps bringing you back to first row
Did you ever even know that you were my first love?

Thank you for letting me have your words in my hands
I wanted to ask you so many things after that last time
But the letter I gave you was my way to say goodbye
'Cause I knew that we'd no longer be crossing paths

Would you be my Princess Leia in a different life?
Can I take you to B612 when you're feeling down?
I heard you can be invisible and magical all at once
You were magic and my feelings invisible at that time

Do you still write on your journal on your way to class?
If you fall does he make you smile while you get up?
Didn't know you well yet you gave me so much to think about
A smile, a dream, a joke, those brown eyes that got me lost


Yeah I still write about you 'cause It's my only way out
I'm still trapped in my own mess and can't chase after you
From your freckles to your beautiful mind, I kept them inside
Saved in my memory like if you were the love of my life

See you another time in another useless fantasy of mine
Or try not to be on my mind sometimes when I wake up
Everything that happened in between then and now
It was just a distraction that I knew wouldn't be enough

You were right and I shouldn't have left so many times
Saved in my memory like your journals written in a rush

— The End —
