Lost
(At The Corner Of Quinn And Wilson)
by John Michael Ray

There are nights I still miss you
I understand why you left
Though it still feels like the end of the world
I know it's all for the best
I never thought this could happen
When we first started our ride
It feels like the very heart of me
Has been taken from inside
I hope one day you forgive me
For the things I did and didn't do
The sabotage and running away
I was running from me not you
All the dreams we had for the future
I spent too much time in the past
Haunted by another's nightmare
Throwing us away too fast

I wish I could look in your eyes again
I wish I could see your smile
I wish you could hold me one more time
And make me feel safe for a while

I thought it was done and put away
Metaphorically stored on the shelf
After I thought I was over her
I should have gotten over myself
Hopes and dreams being shattered
Having to rebuild from the start
Don't be afraid, don't be on guard
Let someone into your heart
If he really makes you happy
Then I'm happy for you too
The very best is all I wanted for you
I'm sorry I couldn't come through
So now I'm standing on this corner
Not knowing which way to cross
Every direction leads me back
To a feeling of forever lost

I wish I could look in your eyes again
I wish I could see your smile
I wish you could hold me one more time
And make me feel safe for a while
