To have loved and have lost
They say it comes at a great cost
And it’s true
Cause there was a time I had you
Sometimes I say your name out loud
Don’t you tell me that I’m not allowed
It takes time
I take a breath and tell myself I’m fine
But I still remember the better days
When we would lie in the grass and you said something strange
Like darling don’t look now
But I believe the stars are falling to the ground
I am forcing the image out of my head
Of when I looked at you and saw myself instead
Through and through
One eye was brown, and one blue
And there are times when I look back
And some of the memories have turned to black
In my mind
There are moments I just can’t find
But I still remember the sunny days
When we were walkin on the beach and you said something strange
Like if I drew my heart in the sand
Do you think that you could try and understand?
I know that what we had is impossible to explain
It’s like a part of me was living inside your brain
I still feel you with every single breath
But you bled me dry till I had nothing left
But I still remember the good old days
When we were lying in bed and you said something strange
Like don’t let me fall asleep
Cause I’m afraid of what I’ll see in my dreams
