Once

I guess I loved you
once
A long time ago 
when things seemed so uncomplicated
and real
But it's all blurred
and faded now
like the dreams just before you wake
that slip away
when you open
your eyes
You are a stranger 
to me now
lost in a world
I can't be 
a part of
My words have no
meaning in that 
world-
and neither do I
I guess I'll always 
love you-
the you I used to 
know-
the only you
there is 
for me 
now
