I was close, yet very far away, hoping we would be together. It took me 25 years to realize it wasn’t going to work. And for years, I tried to put this story into a song – the hardest one of all to write. I dedicate this song to all those who never made it. You are not alone.
I’m sitting here, writing you a song
It’s the hardest one of all
I’m sitting here, I don’t know what to say
So listen, please, this very last time
You were my song, for all my life
I loved you since I was five
Now it’s been so long since we spoke
This silence.. who would have thought?
Your deep blue eyes
My young and fragile heart
Your voice singing bravely for me
And mine.. for you..
Sitting close and holding hands
Believing, there’s a chance
To be the ones wе used to be
To be bravе, to try.. and see..
It’s bittersweet to watch you grow
Who you are, I don’t know..
And I’m sorry, I’m sorry for.. you know..
I know you know..
Your deep blue eyes
My young and fragile heart
Your voice singing bravely for me
And mine.. for you.. for you..
