Who are you?

by Jackie Bilson   Aug 28, 2004


You were my first real kiss,
I remember the feeling well.
On the street you were there to catch me,
Whenever I tripped and fell.

You were my first slow dance,
It was right after our biggest fight.
You apologised and I forgave you,
It was a wonderful night.

You know, I thought I had been in love before,
But, you showed me I was wrong.
You were my first and I thought my last,
You even picked 'Our Song'

You cried when I left on holiday,
Every night I thought of nothing but you,
When I came back, you took me in your arms,
Right then and there, I knew.

I knew you really loved me,
I knew you needed me so.
I knew how much I needed you too,
And I'd never let you go.

We made several mistakes,
We were young, it had to end.
I broke down into a million pieces,
My heart will never fully mend.

Now I still see you in school,
But you don't even speak.
I know you drink, I know you smoke,
Your eyes are empty, your body weak.

Skipping class and partying,
Getting drunk when you're all alone.
Hunched over possibly smoking pot,
Sitting still like you're made of stone.

Where's the boy I fell for?
Where's the boy I knew?
All I know is he's not who he was,
And he's definitely not YOU.
