The Better Days

No matter what I’m doing or who I’m with, thoughts of you never escape.

You are in every boy I meet, every song I sing.

You are long gone but I swear you’re still in the passenger seat.

Singing me songs with unspoken truths, 

dance me around my room,

whispering words that will never escape.

I didn’t believe in love, not until you.

But when you left, so did my faith.

Our song came through the speakers earlier today and I suddenly became very astray.

I pulled over and looked to my right, and suddenly you were in my sight.

The memories you left, and the expectations you set.

I can’t let anyone else in, you made it impossible.

Who knew someone so far could have a grip so tight.

And now all that remains are the memories. 

A relationship founded on music and faith.

Dedicated songs and beautiful spots.

What I would do to relive those days.

What I would do to be in your embrace.

When we said goodbye, I knew I would never be the same.
