***
All I can ever be to you
Is a darkness that we knew
And this regret I had to get accustomed to
Once it was so right
When we were at our high
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
I knew I hadn’t met my match
But every moment we could snatch
I don’t know why I got so attached
It’s my responsibility
And you don’t owe nothing to me
But to walk away I have no capacity
He walks away
The sun goes down
He takes the day but I’m grown
And in your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own….
