Life will never be the same... |
I still check my e-mail In hopes that you realize How much you need me, And I still set my phone To ring for you at night, As if by the slightest chance You call, Yes, I took your pictures down But can't bring myself to throw them away, Old journals full of our memories, Clothes I can't bring myself to wear, Jewelry that I put away, Because they still remind me of you... It's too painful to remember the stories I don't get on messenger much anymore I doubt you've noticed, It'd be too hard to ignore you If by some chance, you signed on too, I replay songs that remind me of better times Yet, I end up in tears Because those times are forever gone, I reread that fateful message sometimes Just to remind myself that I'm better off... Nights are so long these days, Minutes tick by like hours, Sleep doesn't come so easy, So I lie awake because Closing my eyes is dangerous, Because the past becomes so real I can almost feel the kisses The touch of your hands That low voice haunts me The words cut like daggers into my soul And there is no escape, You're everywhere I see you in everything The moments that I think I'm finally gonna be okay I smell your soap on the wind Or I think I hear your laughter, And I'm back to square one All progress put aside I keep telling myself that one day I'll start a day without thinking of you I'll be able to glance at your picture Without shedding a tear I'll drive down Stubbs Vinson Without missing you But that day just won't get here fast enough. |
