Without You
Without you
Without you I found myself wondering like a lost soul in the universe
What have I done? What did I do?
I became an instant attorney trying to interrogate myself
Please talk to me, I begged you.
Those questions ran through my mind a thousand times like a scholar trying to figure out the solution for solving x
I woke up thinking it was all a dream
I had hoped it was only in my head
Love was no more
I had to learn to be alone.
I had to instil the word goodbye deep inside my head, but it was not easy
I had thought we would be together for eternity
I had hoped we would grow old together
But I guess we had different ideas of what we perceived as love.
Where did you go? I asked
I mean the true you
The person whom I knew before, where did he go?
We had our virtuous times, and made noise in the garden like the sound left by birds in the silent morning
We shared more than memories
But for now it's time to say goodbye or maybe should I say see you later.
Don't forget about me
Because I sure will remember you
I just need to know
That you will not forget me, and the times we shared
For now it's OK, for now it's time, time to say goodbye.
