life

At first you were only the ghost of the dream
And when I said: "I love you."
In my heart I wasn't certain
If I ever could
You wanted to drive the 1200 miles to see me again
Even after the cruelness of my silent goodbye
18 years ago when I left your life for good

I phoned you, what was it?
Maybe two months ago
"I want you to come home, to be part of our lives again."
Your daughter was quiet on the phone
and I
I was the stranger who left you
