It was like I’d forgotten /

All those times you were nice to me.

You’d hold my hand

You’d ask how I was

You’d smile and say,

I was an angel. 

And then I remembered /

All those times my mind was elsewhere.

How he’d kissed me

How he’d whispered 

How he’d pause the now,

But I’d be regret.

Love, it’s impossible /

We can’t hold onto love squandered.

Me wanting to keep

Me hoping I’d see

Me hoping I’d be,

Better than thee.
