It is the most effective poison, for it works slowly, using time to its full potential.
Regret is the true killer.
No one can escape it and it haunts you no matter how hard you try...
Three years gone - lost to pride and the pain of being replaced
(or so I thought)
now the air fills up with the promise of starting over, but no words can gloss over
the bitterness that I wear like a thick winter coat.
I miss you and I can't bear it but I know we can't just pick up
even though we've shed tears and drowned the other in "I'm sorry".
We're getting further apart as the days pass and I'm too ashamed to try.
Give me your hand and let me know that we can ya-ya again, that there still is a chance.
That you won't let me fade away when you're caught up in your Footloose daydream.
(my life and scrapbook seem so empty without you)
Don't let distance kill us, and help me tear down the wall that I foolishly built
just so you couldn't hurt me again.
(I hate being left behind, especially after I invested so much of my life in you)
We need a do-over...
Forgive and forget?
If not for me, do it for Jonah - Him and that cruise ship are what binds us together in the first place

Tis the season, and it must be getting to me...
Have you any room?
