I missed you last night, so I put a pen to paper

I missed you last night, so I wrote some things down

I missed you last night, so I did something we used to do together

I missed you last night, so I wrote a story

About another place, another time, another life.

I wrote a story, and it wasn't the same

I wrote a story, and it didn't feel right

I wrote a story, and the story had changed

I wrote a story, and without you the story was wrong

No laughter, no joy, no right.

The story was wrong, so I tried to change it

The story was wrong, so I added some more

The story was wrong, so I threw it away

The story was wrong, so I started anew

A new story, a new place, a new time, a new life.

I missed you last night, so I wrote a story, but the story was wrong

So I started anew.
