how long has it been
since the last time
the last time
we talked
time goes by so fast
it seems like ages
since then
i find myself hanging about
thinking about you
how you used to make me feel
you feel the same way
i know its true
so slice the silence
with one word
i've too much pride

how long has it been
since the last time
we walked
side by side
hand in hand
there isnt a day that goes by
i dont recall
the radience
of your face
soft glow of your grin?
little gap you had
between your teeth
i know thats not all
but with every hour
that goes by
so does a little of you

fades away

im losing you
losing you
even though you are already gone

would it be better
with you still here
to see you and know
i cant hold you near
the space between us
a void too large to fill
the man i was
my opinion held so dear
lost in that one last shouting match
couldnt see eye to eye
both too big to see
how small it really was

i had a dream last night
that you were here with me
both the people we used to be.
to think,
what we have become?
just a bad ending to a b-movie?
the script wasnt right
thats not how its supposed to be
words that cut like a knife

you didnt have to laugh
when we last met
new plaything at your side
that same smile
once made my heart beat
now transforms it to stone
the spark that once
made me burn
is now missing its fuel
made me act like a fool
but never again
no not again
will you be in my life

i wonder what you would say
if you knew what i thought
knew how i feel
maybe ill fall in love
once more
