"I have a dream."- MLK Jr.


It's all just far away, drifting off just out of my reach to taunt me

Still presiding over my mind and heart's blind eyes just to haunt me

All I really wanted was you not the extra baggage that came with

She'd make a perfect mom I thought this was a perfect fit

But then everyone wanted to butt in and they pushed you off so now you're leaving

Or was I the one who left? Probably, yeah because I was afraid of believing



He's just far away, drifting off into the sunset without me

Is it too much to ask was I too late in the state of 'be'?

He doesn't want me but I still just want him, but he's so far gone

I think of when we could be older and he meets my dad and my dad's girl back at home

But to him I'm just one of the boys, a punch in the arm when things get rough

Got me on layaway but I guess I can hang, I guess I can be tough

I can want him now that he's gone and left me alone

But him over there and me over here with no phone

Does nothing to call him back

So just like I usually do, I'll give up on him and dad
