I never really liked that song before
It wasn't something I would adore
Until one day I heard it from you
The song stuck in my head like glue

It was the last song I heard you sing
Even now I hear your voice ring
I don't know if you sang it for me
I'm still hoping from across the sea

I left with the song on replay
My hoarse voice whispered, "I want to stay"
We still kept in touch
Even if it wasn't much

As long as you don't forget
I'll go without a fret
Eventually, my feelings faded
When our bonds somewhat cascaded

I smiled when I thought I moved on
Relieved when the sadness was gone
I stopped listening to the song
But oh was I wrong

After years of no contact
Somehow you're back
As if nothing changed

It was nothing strange

I let out a relieved sigh of gratitude
but I couldn't help myself when the feelings intrude
I was never over you
If anything, it only grew

I replayed the song
I wasn't that strong
But it wouldn't stop
I was about to pop

"Who would like me?" You thought through.
"I did." I lied, I still do
"Shit, me too," you said in disbelief
I couldn't do it, I needed to leave

It was two years too late
I can only leave it all to fate
I play the song every now and then
While waiting for the day to see you again
