reminders
I'm sitting here alone and thinking of what to say
as my mind draws a blank
I decide to take a long walk
hoping the fresh air will clear my head
It seems that everything reminds me of you.
Those sappy love songs that make me realize
what we have is special.
The long walks going nowhere, that I wish we took,
hearing your voice telling me you want me to stay,
and the way you wrap your arms around me so tight-
that way I can't leave-
reminds me of why I love you so.
I finally stop at the river bed,
and as I look down into the water,
I see more than my reflection;
I see us as one, a whole
when I take a look up from the river,
I look behind me, but there is nothing.
All is silent except for the peaceful singing of the birds.
I pick myself up an decide to go home
On my way back I try to figure out why I ever said anything
Maybe it's 'cause I wanted to let the one I love go
Hoping he comes back-
that way I know we we're meant to be.
