can i take these moments
and these memories
can i keep them in my heart
and play them like a video tape?

when i miss you in the emptiness
will i lie there in my thoughts?
when i find happiness
will i look at our old pictures?

do i try to move on
or should i stop and replay the track?
do i keep listening to our favorite song
or start a playlist all on my own?

may i hope for an unknown future?
should i remember you forever
may i forget all our plans together?
should i act like i'm not so sure

i want to be myself
but how can i when the best part of me was you?
i stay collecting dust on the shelf
but how can i move when i don't want to?

won't you come back to me?
i'm the lock and you're the key
won't you just be how you used to be?
i'm wishing upon a star only i can see

you left me
i loved you
you need to see
i can be broken too
