I wish I had the memories,
The ones all lovers have,
No pictures or promises I hold,
No poems, no laughs, I lack it all.
I remember the summer,
The winds that ran through your hair,
The time well wasted,
Those moments were rare.
I could've given you what she promised.
I would've given you what I knew.
The knowledge of love, and how to keep it in one place,
And never let it go.
I knew love well, I was taught by your grace.
There you stood,
Sure as can be,
There I was,
Waiting to be...
I could've given you what she promised,
I would've given you all I knew,
I wish I would've known more,
To keep you here.
There I stood,
Not able to convince you,
There you were,
Waiting to walk away.
