I Forgot

I forgot the time, it slipped so fast
Stuck in the quicksands of the past
You look so good in the dimming light
I forgot that you can’t spend the night
I forgot that things are different now
There’s certain things you won’t allow
At the end of such a perfect day
It’s hard to understand you have to go away
Tell me again, why are we friends?
When we used to be so much more
Your roof should be my roof
My floor should be your floor
Why is it not?
Please tell me I forgot
Your hand lies burning in your lap
And in your palm the clearest map
I forgot your eyes could pierce right through
Every shield I put in front of you
But the worst part is I realize
In the doorway as you say goodbye
I forgot to tell you all of this
When you still were mine to kiss
Tell me again, why are we friends?
When we used to be so much more
My roof should be your roof
Your floor should be my floor
Why is it not?
Please tell me I forgot
