she's been on my mind a lot lately
and i've been a little disconnected
feeling a little ajar
and it doesn't make sense until
i'm not thinking
then it hits me
you, my universal traveller now
keeper of the memories
it was the date i missed
but didn't really miss
it has been two years
since the last night that i saw you
you came to me in a dream a couple nights ago
the exact vision i can't recall but i felt you around me
and i slept better than i have in a long time
had i known that night was our last goodbye i don't know that i would have done anything different
i told you how you felt to me
i told you that i admired you
and said more about me and my life than i ever had before
and you
you told me your secrets too.
maybe i wouldn't have been so full on the bottle that night
and maybe i would have come seen you at work the next day like you asked
but we were never really good at keeping those verbal plans
or even planned ones
i'll always wonder what would have happened had i followed through that date we had- that night in December
the week i was so sick
you said you had even picked out your outfit
it was on your bed
never worn
never seen
we never really got a good shot after that
always missing the moment like sloppy borrachas.
we were good like that i guess
i miss you sometimes which amounts to more than less
and there's nobody singing to me in my dreams like you do
i'm glad you've reserved that spot for my eternity
i like the sentiment
and the smile you always give me
soon it will be your two year anniversary and
i don't know what i'm gonna do that day
i don't know if i'll want to get out of bed
i don't know if i'll want to sleep all day
i don't know if i'll want re-live
remember
or be reminded of the time that has passed
i want the day to pass through
and i want to hold on to what i've got left of you
that's all i want to do.
that's all i'll ever want to do-
till we take on the wind again and fly...
