Ouch: i'm still not over you

the weight

there's a weight in my chest when i think about you

it throbs and it burns

don't know what to do

i tried to move on

but it all went wrong

and now i'm writing you a song

a song

i think i just missed you

all along

but i'm scared i'm fading

out of sight and into the blue

fading away

peripheral view

i long and i call and i dream

of you

oh damn it i knew

you never knew

never knew 

i'm no longer blue

i think i've turned gray

over and over

yes i have replayed

your voice in my ears

your hand on my waist

the grin in your smirk

our gentle embrace

how i paced and i paced

and traced and traced

your tender fingertips 

on my thin hand

you touched it and smiled

then let it fall like sand

like sand

i called you my man

i called you my love

i longed for your touch

i prayed for you to my God above

but now i pray for release

to let go of this weight

i've carried for so long now

to forget your name.
