You’re standing here beside me
We we’re talking about the past
Working together towards the future
But the oneness didn’t last

You’re still here beside me
But I’m alone, even when you’re there
Your mind has taken you elsewhere
Putting a hold on all we share

You’re off into the future
Dreaming of things to be
No longer do I know you
Though you’re standing next to me

I’m missing you, please come back
I’m weak and tend to roam
I count on you to pick up the slack
And when I’m lost, to guide me home

Though we spend so much time together
It feels like I’m here by myself
I was hoping it would last forever
Now I’ve packed those dreams on a shelf

You’ve been living for the future
Looking right past today
I’m afraid I can’t live up to the dreams
That you’ve had along the way

You’re no longer here, beside me
We’ve long since parted ways
I’ve cried my tears, shed my fears
And stopped counting down the days

I remember you here, beside me,
The loneliness I felt back then
You left me alone in the present
Time and time again
