With You in Mind

I'm moving on distance gained Accepting truth, memories made As I make my way back on home Turning round, distant sounds Rocky roads left on the ground Behind me, slowly fading away Was time reversed or just a gift Feelings had, unrehearsed Or was it just another lesson learned Choices made, like a book Amongst the shelves, overlooked Just waiting for the story to be told You'll always be my summer The one that never came You'll always be the stars and moon that hide behind the rain Looking back to know I tried with love and couldn't find The past behind, and years beyond I'll keep with you in mind I needed truth, the trust you'd claim A waiting game I couldn't play Hopeful it would somehow always change Self-seeking keeping far apart Yet eager to consume my heart Naked on the line, nothing returned Then I awoke from a day That was never yours anyway Back to where I was supposed to be Don't sweetly sip from the drink Devour to the missing link Of knowing what is was that never was You'll always be my summer The one that never came You'll always be the stars and moon that hide behind the rain Looking back to know I tried with love and couldn't find The past behind, and years beyond I'll keep with you in mind I'll stop asking what's the meaning, to why it was we met And take the path of least resistance, to a life with no regrets I'll sing a different tune with notes, of just who I want to be Still knowing how to love just not, giving up my heart so easily You'll always be my summer The one that never came You'll always be the stars and moon that hide behind the rain And looking back to know I tried with love and couldn't find The past behind, and years beyond I'll keep with you in mind I'll keep with you in mind I'll keep with you in mind
