Little Tokyo​

​

We sat on your bed

As you rested your head on me

You were glad that I came

which made it that much harder to breathe

 

There was this knot in my chest

As I said what was in my heart

Because we’re so close, babe

So close but so far

 

And I can’t sit here and just pretend

I feel something that I don’t

And I’d do anything to forget

The words that you spoke

When you spoke

 

That the good ones are the worst to leave

Because there’s no big fights

And no one’s right

And even though this hurts to see

It sure was nice

Having you by my side

 

There’s a beauty to heartbreak

That no one talks about

You never hold someone as tight

Knowing they won’t be around

 

There was solace in the moment

Even through all the red in our eyes

But the guilt of leaving you

Will stay with me ’til i die

As I too find

 

That the good ones are the worst to leave

Because there’s no release

You’re just so damn sweet

So please don’t take this personally

Because it sure was nice

Having you by my side

 

I can’t help but to think if we

Had met at a different time

Maybe it all worked out just fine

In another life
