Again ...

Did I send you away? Did I go off the beaten track? Is there something I can say To make you want to come back? Was it something I did wrong? Did I come on much too strong? Or did I wait too long? Should I tell you that I care? Do I have to grow my hair? That would be a real nightmare ... for me See, I'm me the way I am And it makes me so much stronger To love and let my love last longer I really hated to see you go And it hurts that I don't know What I did to make you run I was having so much fun Weren't you? I think I know what made you flee Beyond the years you couldn't see I really thought we could be ... a nice couple But now I see It was just me ... Again My heart will wait for you a while I'm still trying to find my smile The one you took when you decided it should end Right now I'm thinking of you I hope you're thinking of me too Not as a joke, but as someone ... who has touched your life somehow ... Fondly You left as quickly as you came Like sun after a rain The warmth and light You've taken with you too I trust you'll find your way some day If not to me, as nice a place And thoughts of me will bring a smile upon your face Oh well, God knows better who he pairs Although to me it's hardly fair To have been given and then taken from me you Someday soon I know He'll let me Forget you ever met me It's okay That's just the way We cycle in and out of life We learn we grow we hurt we mend Or at least we pretend It meant nothing from beginning to the end Oh hell, I lied I won't forget It wasn't long But still you meant A great deal to me and I will miss you so So if we ever meet again My nightly prayers do protend I'll search your eyes for telltale signs Of thoughts of me you left behind And at the moment that we meet Reunion oh so bittersweet You'll smile and my heart will break ... Again
