For you

You asked if I still think of you

and the answer's "every day"

Do I miss the love we used to have?

"in every single way"

I wish that I could turn back time,

once more gaze upon your face,

and fall asleep within your arms,

awake in your embrace.

I would have changed my life for you

and to this day that still holds true

And yet I sit here paralyzed

not knowing what to do

You closed the door and walked away

and while I think I understand

We could have faced the past together

walked through the fire hand in hand

Though time has passed I close my eyes

and see you still so clear

and my heart breaks just a little more

as I shed another tear

I wonder if your eyes will fall

upon the message of this rhyme

and see the love I feel for you

in each and every line

And if by some small miracle

you recognize yourself

can we go back and start again

from two books on the same shelf
