Don't Forget To Write
I flipped on the lamp on my night stand. Well, I guess it was your night stand. I looked at the picture of us just to remind me of your face.
Everyday your picture fades
I opened the drawer and got out my CD case. I looked at the compass and touched it to my skin one last time. I know I promised you I would stop. You promised you wouldn't leave me. And now your gone. It was my turn to break the promise.
The promises we made not forgotten
If I had enough money, I would rent a car and drive to Wasaga. I would pick you up and we would leave. I don't know where we would go. Maybe to the States- anywhere but here. You were the only good thing in this town and now you're gone.
So turn away
We could leave this place
In these crowded streets of gray you bring color
Maybe it's my fault you left. Maybe if I had tried to understand a little better, like you tried to understand with me, you would still be here and we would be together. But you decided to leave. You ditched me. I would do anything to find out more about how you felt.
So you say that you're leaving but what are your reasons?
I'm desperate and ashamed
I let you go that day for a reason. I figured that the sooner you left Degrassi, the sooner you would return. You would find everything you needed to quickly and that would be that.
So go find your answers to get you home faster
I know you'll find your way, you'll find your way
Now I'm in your apartment. In your bed. Staring at your picture. Catch the pattern?
I'm barely alive
Though miles may come between us, your always and forever on my mind
You promised to call, e-mail, text, anything to keep in contact. I told you not to forget. I told you everything you had done for me and that I loved you. From that one day on the roof, I thought it would be a fling. I didn't trust that you would hold a commitment. But you shocked me. You did so much for me. And I just might owe you my life for it all.
When you go, don't forget to write
You're the best that ever happened
I never would imagine you would change my life
It's been almost two weeks since you left me. The memories are flooding my head. I remember the first time we met. The first time we fought. The first time we kissed. The first time we danced.
Twelve days past since I saw you last
Only memories to keep me hanging on
I got your letter today. It said you were doing fine. There was no rent money, you didn't ask about me, either. It was all about you.
With all we had
You never asked
Just where I was and how I was doing without you
I didn't write back. I was too lazy and weak. You left me in a state that not even my mother could've accomplished. And through all of this, I still think of your face to help me pull through.
I'm barely alive
Though miles may come between us your always and forever on my mind
I should be happy that you wrote. But I'm not. It didn't say 'Love Sean' at the bottom. I only knew it was from you because you said that the weather in Wasaga was nice. So, I'll give you credit for remembering to write, and credit for saving me from my mother. I'll also give you credit for ruining my life.
When you go, don't forget to write
You're the best that ever happened
I never would imagined you would change my life
