I know
you didn't expect to see my number
pop-up on your phone.
It’s taken a while for me to get here,
I promise not to keep you long.
Wanting you to listen might be a lot to ask,
and I’m not trying to waste your time.
But this call is not about our past.
It’s not about your life,
it's about mine.
Started thinkin about the last time
everything made sense to me.
When happiness wasn't an option,
it was all I knew life to be.
I know our lives are different now
10 years is time enough to change.
But my life is at a standstill
and I can't keep living it this way.
I've been waiting and waiting
for this life I have to end.
Don't panic, it's not that kind of call
but I don't want to just exist,
I want to live again.
You gave me more of myself
than I've ever had before.
And now that you're gone,
I'm missing me that much more.
You brought out the best in me;
a self I never knew.
And I lost that part of me
the second we were through.
I don't wish for the past to repeat itself.
I know we're both with someone else.
But my heart tells me what we had was true.
And I’ve been living a lie every day without you.
I’m not looking for a response,
you don’t have to say a word.
You listening is enough for me;
knowing that you hear my words.
There’s so much more to say
but there really is no need
I know it won’t change a thing.
It’ll just make it harder to breathe.
I know you have a life to get back to
and I thank you for your time.
A few minutes was all I needed
to ease my frame of mind.
You take care of yourself
and I’ll try to do the same.
You’ll always have my heart,
something you know
won’t ever change.
I just needed you to hear
what your love meant to me.
How your eyes were the mirrors
That showed me my beauty.
Like I said before
I’m not looking for a reply
I’ve said all that I needed to.
I love you…
Goodbye.
