"Let me in?" I asked
She said, "Could you please go back"
Gave her my hand,
But she let it fall.
I picked it back up
But she was already gone;
I watched her walk away,
Smiling at the Sun
And I melted.
She was in the rain,
She was in the grass,
And I couldn't help but smile
When I saw her laugh.
I wanted people to see what I saw
Because it's better to be held
Than holding on
To nothing, nothing at all
She wanted to be by herself
And I swear I understood
Alone, but not lonely
But what about me?
Why couldn't she understand
That she was too good
For this world and its people
And to just stay hidden
She pushed me away
I couldn't be with her
But I watched and I smiled
So imagine the others
How would they see what I saw?
Now she's gone
And I remember everything
Every moment, every smile,
Every crinkle of her eyes
I'm not fine
She left without a word
And no one seems to know
But me and a few others
She was too good
For this world
She was too good to just
Sit in her world
I wanted her to be loved
The way I love her
And now I'm not fine
Because all I can do is remember.
She wanted to be by herself
Just her in her innocent world
And I swear I understood
She was alone, not lonely
But what about me?
