Missed You

This isn�t the way I pictured us, so many years ago.
It seems like a century since we�ve been together.
And I guess I thought we would just laugh, like before,
And tell all of our secrets to each other.
Instead we�re standing here like two strangers,
Like we�ve never seen the insides of the other,
Like we�ve never spent long nights laughing at one another.
I have to say, that I�ve missed that slow smile,
And everything else, that I don�t see now.
I think if I cried, you�d turn away from me,
And if I held out my arms you�d step back.
So I smile and you smile back, but it�s a quick one.
I choke, and can�t even tell you I�ve missed you.
