I Was There

And when I saw the light,

I'd frittered half my life away.

A wilderness in flight,

I never was the type to stay.

The price of letting go,

The loss of all I know and feel.

The price of letting go,

The hope that I might show something real.

And now, it comes in waves,

The cruel jokes, the granite gaze.

I swore I'd never miss you,

I swore I didn't care.

 

I swore I'd never miss you,

I swore I didn't care,

But from the time I kissed you,

I was there.

I'm still there.
