The Black Box
Tonight as I lay in bed
Thoughts of the past float in my head
I remember looking at your picture, tracing your face
I even had it covered in a protective case...
Tonight is bittersweet because of the box, the box that saved my mind
But time isnt so kind, the box is hard to find
In it is the hoodie with some bluegrass bands logo
The framed picture that you sent... I couldn't let go
I hold the box, I won't open it at all
I open it and I know I will fall
A tear falls slowly down my cheek
For your love is simply not what I seek
I just want to know... do you have a box too?
What color is it? Is it blue?
You remember... I know you do
But why have you remembered when you could have forgotten too...
Tonight is bittersweet as I let the fact it'll never be the same
Blend into my being, so let us begin over... hello, what's your name...
