Memory

It's been so long
Twenty-two months I've made it through
And I've moved on
But every new lover looks like you
And I'll keep my distance
And give you that room to grow
'Cause I respect your decisions
But I stopped growing two years ago

And I'm sure you still think of me sometimes
And maybe you even smile
At our history
But no matter how fond it is
To you, all this is
Is a memory
And you're still why

I wake up in the morning
And look at our pictures on my phone
You were frightened of the signals
I still sleep with it on airplane mode
And when I make my coffee
I still make it dairy-free
I never liked the flavor
But it tastes like you and me

And I'm sure you still think of me sometimes
And maybe you even smile
At the memory
But our paths are no longer entwined
And the flowers on yours
Left thorns in mine

And I know you still think of me sometimes
And maybe when you close your eyes
You hear my melodies
But no matter how warm it is
To you, all this is
Is a memory
