Were You There

I saw you in the hall
Gave you a smile
Your lips stayed shut
I loved you always then
And forever
No matter what

But still
When I spoke to you
It felt as if I spoke right through

Were you there
Could you see how much your absence hurt me
The messages you sent me I still read
I could give you a million reasons for you to stay
But it only took a couple to walk away

Do you know how it hurt
To see the substance take you away
'Cause when I think back to
How you used to be
You're not the same

But still
When I spoke to you
It felt as if I spoke right through

Were you there
Could you see how much your absence hurt me
The messages you sent me I still read
I could give you a million reasons for you to stay
But it only took a couple to walk away

And I know that we could meet again some day
But I'm truly scared that it won't be the same
All the nerves that I was left with before you went
You justified all of them in the end
