it's been a while since i've seen you last
but time flies, i've forgotten the past
but seeing you again today
brought back feelings i thought went away
i loved you, i really did
but you didn't love me back - you ran, you hid
i held myself and clutched my chest
hoping to give my heart a rest
but its beats still speed up at the sight of you
i took it as a sign, a signal, a cue -
that maybe i wasn't over us just yet
no matter how hard i tried, i just couldn't forget
it brought back the memories and pain
seeing you on that sidewalk again
