I Remember When You Sang About Me

by Colby   May 17, 2009


It was not long ago
A few weeks?
Or is it months now?
Standing naked in the shower
Letting the rain fall
Until it was cold
Singing all of your love songs
Dreaming of me

How long ago was it?
Must it be measured in years now?
Looking in the bathroom mirror
Making yourself more beautiful
Sometimes you'd be in there for hours
I could hear your headphones blaring
Your voice always perfect
Combining art and love

It still seems like yesterday
All those times I broke your heart
You would lay in bed all day
The stereo was screaming
Those songs of lost love
I would sit on the stairs listening
At least deep down I knew
You were still singing about me

But yesterday is gone
I suppose I deserve this
You are singing louder than ever now
Letting the cold rain fall longer
Spending more time on your perfect hair
I suppose I deserve this
But I can not stop listening
Your voice is still beautiful

Today, my heart broke
I know I deserve this
But this is more than I can handle
No more do you sing of lost love
With sadness on your tongue
It is now a song of thankfulness
And all those pretty love songs
You sing about him
