i wish
as i look back, i see the times
when i really didn't realize
that i was being unkind
i didn't see it all the time
when we are hurting
all we can see
is the color of pain
and fight to remain
but now i've had time
to think things through
and i can see
i wasn't fair to you
if only these words i would say
and i would so change
i wouldn't be this way
i hold in my hand
a little tan band
remembering the day
it was on my hand
and wishing for the day
you wanted it to stay
and then i wish
that you and i were there
for so long now
i've hidden emotion
i had a notion
that you'd turn away
but you've never seen
the passion in me
i hid it away
scared you wouldn't stay
but now you're gone
i lost you anyway
i wish you knew
my passion for you
my affectionate nature
i turned away from you
afraid to lose
your friendship too
now i'm lost
and i can't find my way
can't face the days
so lonely without you
