Truly special

All those stupid little things
that used to drive me insane
everything you said to me
thats where i thought it would remain
the times i took you for granted
and ignored you for hours on end
the words i missed that were so enchanted
telling me you would always be my friend
i missed the important things
because i always seemed to be too busy
and then you decided you had to leave me
that bit i heard
you told me i couldn't listen
and soon your face became so blurred
it had been so long since i thought of you
i just needed a little time and space
i tried to imagine your voice in my head
but nothing came back to me, not one single word
you had told me i was special
i can't remember why
for some strange reason you had loved me
it made me want to cry
i thought i could resist it
but soon i had my phone
i just needed to call you
so i asked if you were home
i heard your voice in the background
i recognized it straight away
right at that moment
you were asking her to stay
i wondered if she listened
or if she just turned her back
cos you were truly special
