As stains and scars are slowly washed away,
the morning comes to wake me from my dreams.
I had you once again, or so it seems—
In truth, you're farther from me by a day.
I've suffered long enough, that much I know
Euphemisms only can I speak
Regret just called an armistice last week
My heavy tears, I've carved a place to stow.
I'm sure you feel relieved that I am "healed"
Interruption of our kind of love hurts most
I see you now, a poignant, smiling ghost
Wondering how time can such love steal.
I think I've found someone I think you'd like
And something tells me you have done the same
He stopped the bleeding, killed the lasting pain
He taught me once again to ride my bike.
But don't forget the summer nights we spent
Don't forget what once to me you meant
