I confess it confused me,
and hurt a bit
to know that there are still
bars between us,
that we're so close yet
so far.
"Was it me?" I asked myself,
"Am I not enough?"
But then I realize that
no one's to fault,
it was just the wrong time to try,
your gate wasn't ready to open.
I think I'll learn
to be content
just waiting outside,
it's not too bad out here;
because you are still you,
and I am still me,
we can chat and laugh and
be happy together
like we always used to be.
