Long Since Lost
I see you there, all dressed up for the night
I'm thinking about the past and it feels so right
I want to gather my courage and begin to walk
Walk to you; take your hand and just talk
It seems so long since we just spoke
My lungs burn as I inhale the smoke
My nerves dance on flames and so does my heart
How I wish I could take us back to the start
I remember you sleeping in late, your lazy smile
How it was so easy to get you all riled
The little scar that fit you so damn well
All the secrets we would never tell
I recall the time you told me truths
Oh how naive we were in our youth
And when we stood face to face
I felt like I had been caught up in the chase
But now next to you HE stands tall and proud
In a place only I should be allowed!
But I lost you long ago, that I know
And now, watching you, I've fallen so low
