Here I Am, And There You Go.


Time stands still, Movement stops, I close my eyes, And there you are. I reach out, To grab your sleeve, You look at me, And then you leave, This happy ending, Won't exist. It's all lies, There's no bliss. You walk to her, And there you stand, Letting her, Take your hand, She gives a smile, And so do you, Break your heart, Is all she'll do. You look away, And then she strikes, Draining you, Of all your life. She broke you, Right in two, Just like she, Meant to do. She walks away, And there you stand, Looking at, Your lonesome hand. You take one step, And then another, After her, You run forever, I watched it all, From the side, Screaming loudly, But, just inside, Here I am, And there you go. I miss you now, But, you don't know.
