Please tell me you came up with a reason
To the place and time this year went
Have you wondered where this year went?
You're my redirection for the months ahead
I understand you just want to put me behind
But you're leaving me alone to wonder where we went
I know you've wondered where this year went
I see your eyes glance at me but look away
I know my smile brings back all that guiltless shame
Where did all of those understanding talks go?
You're my diary, my belief and my friend
And you just go and put me behind with all the rest
Haven't you realized I can't put you behind
Why can't I just put you behind?
You've made it clear you don't care at all
I hope to see you around next fall
I hope my words have helped kill those thoughts
And even if you have put me behind for now
I'll make sure that if you need me, I'll come back around
And maybe one day you'll think about days like these
And wonder why you thought you had to leave
