Faded and Forgotten
Time and time again I start to forget,
what we had, what we could be,
what will never be again.
I'm amazed that I've started to forget,
that sad look in your eyes, that smile of yours,
that always used to haunt me.
But as I walk, one step at a time,
I can't ignore it, I can't stop it,
the memories are slipping away.
If I hear someone, who sounds like you,
whereas before I would look up, listen attentively,
now I can continue with my work.
It's not that I stopped caring, of course not,
it's just that it's not you, and never will be
because you're not a part of my life anymore.
Still every so often, the memories come back
One after the other, trying to reel me in,
But I've learned to get passed it.
Don't tell me to stop, don't tell me to come,
I know that in your heart,
I never was what I hoped I was.
You were the first, perhaps you'll be the last,
It doesn't really matter anymore, but just so you know,
I'll always love you... but I've moved on.
