Time moves on forcing me to do the same. I pass the days unwitting Simply doing what must be done, Hardly straying from my day to day, Seldom allowing the merest crack in my facade. I tell myself I'm happy, I suppose sometimes I am. I promised i would never forget, But i try not to look back, Try not to let my heart linger too long On all the might have beens... All the should have beens. But the truth is this ache never dulls,these regrets never die And my heart still yearns. Days have turned into weeks; Weeks into months And still you are always on my mind. Some days the world is to quiet And i ponder too long on my mistakes, Wonder too much on missed opportunities, Question too hard the rights and wrongs And I pick up the phone only to put it down, Write a letter only to leave it unsent, Get in the car only to drive around unnoticed; Allowing my pride to convince me That as much as knowing hurts, The truth could prove to be unbearable. So I linger in my own shadows, Desperatley waiting for time to keep it's promise to heal As I've kept my promise to never forget.
