been a while since you answered back

didn't know you felt like that

wish i could take it back

but it's too late now


been a while since we passed

each other in the hallway

going from june, up until august


when we do

i'm convinced

we could convince people

we're strangers


remember the time

it only felt like you and i

you put my stars in the sky

you made me feel so high


do you remember

that time

you came up to me,

behind

and scared the living daylights out of me


pushed me to the bus stop

but you were never honest

with me


i hope you understand

that you lead me on

love isn't a game

and it feels so strange


how i've moved on now

how i've changed

how i've learned to cope

and learned to grow


do you remember

those days?

we'd sit in the sun

play and mess around

it wasn't fun


heart's been broken, torn

and mended now


some things

i don't know if i'll forgive

and i'll never forget

i wouldn't know how


but

moving on -

if we couldn't

how could we be to the point

where we are now?


you burned me with rage

drowned my heart in tears

tore me apart

made my heart smile

made it cry for help


i guess that's the thing about love.

it's beautiful.
