It seems so long ago,
But I remember you,
As the little girl next door,
With a tree house fit for two.
We'd hide away the hours,
Singing with our stereo,
I know, I know, I know.
Well I know
The time I made you cry,
When you're Daddy asked me,
Had I seen you taking drugs?
What more could you expect?
I was just a little boy,
I'd barely turned 13,
I was still afraid of big people,
I still believed in things.
They then put you away,
I never saw you naked,
Remember how I cried,
And you cried for me.
You're parents gave me hell,
They took away my memories.
I screamed for your return,
The return that never came.
The years have been so hard,
I never had a best friend,
I never met my wife.
No one could equal you.
She met me on the street,
We talked away the daylight,
She seemed to look so sad,
I took her home to bed,
I held her in my arms,
I thought she'd feel wanted,
I thought I'd keep her safe,
But morning came again.
She'd gone again.
