I'll Wave Back
I drove past your grave today,
I felt you wave to me.
Your laughter filled my thoughts,
I almost veered off the road...
Maybe because I remembered,
When we used to be alone,
You'd put me in your arms...
But with other eyes upon us,
You'd be quick to shoot me down.
Our friendship was a knot,
I was trying to take it apart...
But you died,
And it still holds tight.
I used to dream about telling you,
All these dreams about you,
All these dreams about us...
But that's okay,
I know you did,
No, you never had to say it...
I know it anyways,
And yes, it's okay.
You didn't want to leave me,
I know.
But if you could've taken me too,
I wouldn't be alone now.
Yes, he loves me,
I know.
But there is no one,
Who laughs like you do.
I would've waved back,
But I was driving,
And I didn't want to take my hand off the wheel,
Yes, I know,
That's a bad excuse.
But next time,
Like the very first day I saw you,
I'll wave back.
