A Past You Can'T Forget
The clock hits 3am
She sits quietly in the still of her own room
With her headphones in quietly she listens
Until that one song began to play
Yea you know the one
It hits so close to home
And she finds herself going thru old picture albums
The one that shows when she used to be his everything
When she meant so much more to him
Than just another friend
Just another girl he used to know
One he used to love more than life itself
Every now and then he'll call just to check in
And every now and then she reminds him
Of little things here and there about what used to be
They talk about the good old days
Laugh about all the good times they once shared
But once all is said and done they say their goodbyes
Does he know that for her it never stops there?
Those days may be long gone for him
But it's those memories that she still holds onto
Still keeps them very dear to her heart
And though she will always love him
She has had to learn to live without him
She's slowly moving on with her life
But the closer she gets to someone new
She thinks back to the love they once shared
And she knows that no one else will ever compare
He's even confessed he felt the same
They've both dated other people
Both said their own 'I Love Yous'
And yet no matter what the best of friends they remain
She still loves him
And he still loves her
If there's one thing they both agree on
It's that they'll never find another love like theirs
And she'd give anything to have that again
Never truly understanding why he continues to hold back
But she knows that she can't spend forever waiting on someone
Who just isn't sure of what he wants in life
She'll never find another love like his
And his memory will never fade
Forever her favorite memory he will be
But she must let go
She's held on for so long
But she just can't do it alone
In her heart he'll always be her best friend
But together again they may never be
And she's learned to be ok with that
For one reason and one alone
'If you love something set it free, If it comes back then it's meant to be, And if it doesn't, Then it was never really truly yours from the start.'
