Surgery

I see us there
We're sitting in Washington Square Park
Watching the people walk by
You take my hand
And say something to get me laughing
Time slows down tonight
Seemed we always had a way of
Making each other feel safe
And at home
Looking back now the colors fade
The brightest orange now a
Shade of gray the day
My heart turned into stone

Someday, won't be today
I'll keep you locked away
In the shadows of my memory
You once said the things you lose
They always come back to you in the end
But I'm way past the what ifs and maybe thens

I got the call one
Sunny, Thursday afternoon
And I never thought of telling you
Cause I didn't wanna trap you
You proved me right
The day I woke up from surgery
And there weren't any messages left for me
Isn't it funny
We once had a way of
Making each other feel
Safe and so secure
Now that fades behind
What's here and now
And I struggle to accept it's over
How did I
Miss all those signs

Someday, won't be today
I'll keep you locked away
In the shadows of my memory
You once said, the things you lose
They always come back to you in the end
But I'm way past the what ifs and maybe thens

Oh maybe thens

One day I'll be grateful
But not today
Someday I might thank you for
Running away
And I'll see the point
In all these scars
That didn't fade
One day.. one day.. one day

One day I'll be grateful
But not today
Someday I might thank you for
Running away
And I'll see the point
In all these scars
That didn't fade
One day I won't remember your name
I won't remember your name
