THINK OF ME, AND SMILE...

When I look at your face
It is so hard to see
The gentleness, the caring
That there used to be

Steel cold blue eyes
Used to be deep blue depths
Its hard to see all the
Tears they've wept

As cold as ice
They look back at me
I know I've changed too
But what can you see?

What are you thinking?
I'd like to know
Do you still love me
Now you've let me go

Where is the love
That used to be there
As I ran my fingers
Through your dark blonde hair

Where's the cute things
You used to do
Sending me a card
When I had the flu

All those things gone
Where the good things go
Into the past
With the guy I used to know

You've changed - I can't tell
If its for the better
That's why I write this
Solitary letter

Good luck in whatever
You choose to do
I know that in time
You'll meet someone new

I won't be jealous
I'll be happy for you
But there is something I have to
Ask you to do

Never forget
The times we had
Even though sometimes
I made you mad

Keep in touch
Don't let it die
And every so often
Stop and ask why

Why is life so hard
Why must it all end
Why does life have
So many twists and bends

Then go on living
But think of me sometimes
You've left me for dead
Far, far behind

And in turn
I'll think of you
And say it was worth it
I loved him too

So see you later
Still be my friend
Please don't let that
Ever come to an end

And when you're older
You'll look back for a while
You'll think of me, I hope
With a smile
