I leave them, yet they know not they are left
They forget what ever was there
I hope I will some day return,
But maybe never again
I want to be part of what I was
Before I threw it away
And now as I wander on alone
I wish I could forget
The pain shoots through me in every thought
Yet it eases as time goes on
And I know that if I just carried on
I would forget it ever hurt
But I have left now, never to return
For no-one wants me back
And if only they could understand
I never meant to hurt
Will they ever realise that I wanted to be with them
I didn't want to desert them in their hours of need
But I didn't know then how much it meant
That I should never leave
Do they know that I mean my apologies?
And I mean it, friends forever
Do they know that without them I'll wither away?
Do they realise they are my flame?
