Lord Huron - The Night We Met is on the radio

Scrolling down my feed, I saw a link saying that December 22, 2019 will be the longest night we'll experience in the decade. I laughed. Oh, is the universe giving me a longer time to think about you?

"And then I can tell myself
What the hell I'm supposed to do
And then I can tell myself
Not to ride along with you"~~

December 22 was our anniversary. Dammit. I went out to get some fresh air but then I heard your favorite song on the radio. How dare you haunt me like this?

"I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met"~~

I walked back to my room, the same room you told me that you were going to the same college as I am. The same room you gave me the promise ring that funnily, I still am wearing. The same room you said that you were dying. The same room you left me while I was crying.

"I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met"~~

I opened my phone, and saw my wallpaper. It was us during our last Valentine's day. And then it occured to me. That whatever I do and how deeply I cry, I cannot deny the fact that you have already taken your flight. I miss you a lot, but I got to let you go.

If only I could go back to the time you were still here, I'd hug you without an end. I know you're in heaven now, and I know you requested this night to be the longest

Thank you for giving me a longer time to spend the night we met. I'm letting you go, but I'm always gonna love you.
