You and I

Sometimes I stare at my hands

remembering the times they were held by yours

Warm, smooth but rough

Together these hands meant love was enough

 

We could’ve conquered the world

Just you and I

 

Sometimes I find myself staring at the wall

just to pass the time

wondering where we went wrong

and how you’re no longer a part of my life

 

So many plans we’ve made

So many things we’d meant do

We’d see the world and let time fly

because time never mattered

when it was

just you and I

 

But now it’s you and her

and

they say if I love you

and your happy

I should be okay

Is that the test of my love?

Should I let go and fade into the gray?

 

But you were my safety

you were my home

I could shut out the world

cause with you, I was never alone

I’m supposed to watch you be you and I but with her?

 

How can I leave this sorrow?

where can I leave this pain?

I should’ve believed them

when they said love would drive me insane

 

So now I pack my love and dreams of you

I push them down

and spend my days avoiding the truth

that it doesn’t matter how I feel

or how much I cry

I can only see you in my dreams

where we live the life we planned

just

you and i
