It's crazy, what I'm thinking now Wondering, with a wandering mind I took a picture of you once, just to have a souvenir Just so I could remember your face, bathed in the summer sun After a while, I placed your memory on a shelf Hoping to forget, hoping to erase the parts I didn't like But now it seems I've taken it down, again I've taken your memory down off of that shelf Now I see, and now I think I understand I've been shown the truth, I've got nothing to lose There is nothing left to hide... Too many choices left untouched Too many secrets left silent, wasted I'm reaching out across this space, hoping Wondering if you can hear me, wondering if you care Realizing that I've been searching my mind, my heart A strangers' face, everything, anything Looking for something I cannot name Except...except to call it you... |
