I tried for years to keep up,
To stop them passing by
But still; i was left behind
Or so it seemed, back then.
I realise now, they chose a road
That led them to their future
And that same path? Well,
It led you to my past.
So we went our seperate ways,
which at the start seemed wrong,
But I’ve become a stranger
In a world we once belonged.
Now, you old friend? I see you smile
Which is more than, away back when
And it still means alot to me,
Thought, I wouldn’t care to tell you.
So I think of those, that I’ve passed by
Who’s future I helped shape.
I wonder do they notice,
or remember I was there.
Though, I don’t allow this vex me
Like I would have in my past
‘Cause that’s just how I’ve changed.
And I feel it’s for the best.
