Out
It's been a month since I last saw you,
But for the first time, I don't care,
And I think that there's a reason
I haven't met you unaware,
I'll admit you took my breath away,
But now I want it back,
And whilst you're there, dig out my life
So I can get it back on track,
My heart's lovefire is fading
For you've no time to kindle it,
With the heat turning to warmth, each day
It heals a little bit,
I fell in love with you before
But now I'm drifting out;
I no longer feel for the girl
I no longer dream about,
You stand with your back to me,
Blocking out my happiness,
So I simply walk around you
With no fear or distress,
I can think about our kisses,
See that they're just a memory,
And though I never will forget them
And hope that you'll remember me,
I can put it all behind me,
Let the tears fall then melt away,
For eventually there'll be none left
And I'll live to love another day.
