Gazing at people, some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through, they can't understand
Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be, you'll be in the end
Of The Heart
There's a bench in the middle of the park. Do you remember it?
From there we can see the lake and hear the children playing.
We would eat ice cream and talk about our dreams.
You want to travel the world someday, go to Europe and stay for a year.
It's where I take you when you have a bad day, sometimes you cry and I pretend not to notice.
It's where I first kissed you. Do you remember?
You pushed me away and said, "David, don't."
It nearly broke my heart.
It's where I first told you I loved you; you looked away as if you didn't hear me. Do you remember?
It's where we said that last goodbye; it took everything I had to convince you to come.
It's raining and I can barely see but I know you're there.
I asked you to stay. Do you remember?
You said no and kissed my cheek. It was the last time I saw you.
Today I'm sitting on that bench by myself, watching the children play and the couples hold hands.
Sometimes I wonder if I should have tried harder, maybe then you would have stayed.
I may be down but I'm not out, and maybe someday we'll see each other again.
There's a bench in the middle of the park.
Do you remember it?
