Someone New
There’s someone new in my life,
he treats me so kind.
He likes to hug me and hold me tight
and I know I’m always on his mind.
But I still think of you
and the sweet things you did;
I have a boxful of our memories
and I cannot shut the lid.
I like to sift through things
and remember what we had;
I feel like you’re fading into a dream,
that’s what makes me most sad.
Sometimes when I’m dreaming
I still think your name instead,
and your face still appears
when I’m laying awake in bed.
It never could have worked,
I know that you agree,
but sometimes I still think
you’re the only one for me.
It’s so easy to slip back
into that kind of thought.
I forget the times we got angry
and all the fights we fought.
This someone new loves me;
he thinks we’ll see forever.
And I agree with him,
but our bond is hard to sever.
I’ll always think of you,
I’ll always remember your face,
but in my heart I must let
someone new take your place.
