I wait for you to come on home
I wait for the days I wouldn't be alone
The three of us, we were inseparable
But it was only a thought I had
When I think of the memories
It makes me overwhelmed and sad
you left home,but with time i felt better
Still the emotional scarring never went away
I still have to live with that, day by day
Overtime, I thought it was my fault
I should have done something
I should have fought harder
But I knew the damage was done,
It was over
Still, I knew somewhere we
weren't going to be the same again
Even as adults it's still harder
You push me away I try to be there
But in life you give what you're given
No one said, it would be fair
The only thing I needed was for you
To stay, at least for me.
But maybe I couldn't see
You were destined to leave one day
I loved you
I needed you
I wanted you
But it was never good enough
Still I wish you the best
Have a good life
But for now,
You're just someone I used to know...

I wait days around for you
The day we would be reunited

-the end-
