The old you

I miss him terribly

The old him
the old him
the old him

But he’s gone now isn’t he?

the old you
the old you
the old you

The one who used to be the bright part of my day
he took my heart with him and now my feelings can’t be kept at bay
He disappeared
Left me here with all this fear…
That he’s never going to come back to stay

I pray for his return every night
I ask God to please soften his heart
I’m lost without him or maybe I’m just lost in fright

All I could do is pray
All I could do is pray
My feelings can’t be kept at bay
the dark thoughts swarm in like a plague

Where’s the him that said I brought colors into his life?
He’s gone and left me here with all this strife

I don’t know what to say
I don’t know what to say
Where’s the you that always wanted to play?

The one who always tried to make me smile
You’d talk dirty to me and I’d ask you to refrain…
That’s the you I’m trying to obtain
That’s the you that took my pain away

Away
Away
Away
He’s gone away

Please don’t keep asking me if I’m okay
And please stop calling me “babe”
You don’t have the right
You’re not him…
the one I think of everyday

In my darkness he would be my sun ray
He’s the one that’s gone away

He’s died.
