You may not think I do
But I sometimes check up on you
Just to see if things are okay
To see if things are going your way
I'm sorry that I'm not there
I'm sorry that you don't care
I wish I could remove the past madness
And I wish there was no more sadness
I've found a reason for me
To change what my heart used to be
Maybe one day we'll start over new
Because the reason is you
I'm sorry that I hurt you
But I felt it inside too
I need you because you were my friend
And true friends never forget in the end
My reason for writing today
Is to see if you will say
What I'm waiting so long to hear
"I'll see you very soon, my dear"
But this is just one of my dreams
Though nothing ever is as it seems
Yes, my hatred really has gone away
Please, won't you come back some day?
J.M.A.B.
