Do you somehow long for me

When you look into her eyes
What color do you see
Brown eyes gazing back at you
Or the blue eyes from my memory

What color hair do you see
Is it brown and beautiful
Or secretly do you see
Blonde and bountiful

When you stand up next to her
Is she just your height
Or are you looking at little me
Only five foot five

When you lay down at night
Does she fit you like a glove
Or do you remember
How comfortable our spooning once was

When you spend a day on the lake
Together, just you and her
Do you ever think about
Our love that once was so pure

Do you ever miss me
Do you secretly pretend that she is me
Do you ever smile at her
As you long for what we used to be

When she says "I love you"
And you say "I love you too"
Do you ever stop to think
Of the days of me and you

When you talk about the past
Do you mention my name
And if you talk about me
Do you give me all of the blame

When you think about me
Does a smile cross your face
Do you reminisce back on the times
And the memories of yesterday

Do you keep our past a secret
When you open up your heart
Does she know the love we had
Even after we fell apart

Does she know that you and I
Were always meant to be
Is her love tough enough
To destroy my memory

Is she the one to put out
The fire we once knew
Is she the one to end
The craze of me and you

Is she my replacement
Is she the winning prize
Does she bring enough happiness
to erase the sadness in your eyes

Is she the one you waited for
Does she surpass your love for me
Is she the one who you longed for
When you did not propose to me

Or does my memory still warm you
Am I still in your heart
Could I somehow still be the one
That fills the empty part

If our love was ever
So deep and to the core
Please do not walk away
Please do not close the door

Living for the moment
And settling for second best
Is life's little way
Of giving us a test

If after all these years
I still can touch your heart
Let us find a way
To make this ending a new start

The chances that we take
Are only once and then they are gone
Do not settle on a love
That does not keep you warm

Are you past the point of no return
Have you settled in
Is she nestled up to you
And your sexy grin

Have you made a life with her
Am I really just old news
Is she capable of
Filling my old shoes

Has she captivated you
Can you not stand to be apart
Is she what you cannot live without
Is she embedded in your heart

Just tell me that I lost you
Let me down easily
And I will walk away from you
It will be hard but I will do it graciously

I will never interfere
Unless you tell me true
That you cannot forget me
And you long for me and you

But if you are certain
That we were not meant to be
Than I will try to let you go
And face reality

Despite the longing deep inside
That I cannot dismiss
You are still the love I long for
And one I never will forget.
