Didn’t anyone realize
The past is gone
Somehow it slipped away

Take the picture and leave behind
The memory
Emotionless and cold

Waiting by the phone at night
And throwing pride away
In hopes I’m not alone

Didn’t anyone realize
The past is gone
But now I know

It breaks my heart
I let us drift so far apart
I’ve chewed my nails down to the bone

The future’s pull
Is far to great a force
But we’ll find happiness
I hope
