To Ian

I've been walking down the same streets I've been down before
Looking at the strangers I've always ignored
Going round in circles running through doors
Playing in my daydreams till I get bored

I've been looking through the photos that speak to me
Pictures of the people we used to be
Drinking in the park where we used to meet
Running through my nightmares whilst you sleep

I don't want to waste my time
If I am crossing the line
I don't want to be alone
If you aren't on the phone
I don't want to say goodbye
If it's gonna make me cry
I don't want to fall apart
When you're trapped in the dark

I've been reading the cards I've kept for years
Wishing that you had never disappeared
Thinking of the time we dyed your beard
Hoping to rewind the day we feared
But I know it was time

How I wish that you'd changed your mind
But I'm sure that we'll all be fine

I don't want to waste my time
If I am crossing the line
I don't want to be alone
If you aren't on the phone
I don't want to say goodbye
If it's gonna make me cry
But I don't want to fall apart
When you're trapped in the dark

I don't want to waste my time
If I am crossing the line
I don't want to be alone
If you aren't on the phone
Coz I don't want to say goodbye
Coz it's gonna make me cry
I don't want to fall apart
When you're trapped in the dark
