Time Apart
By: Michelle Mead and Fee
While you were gone
I cleaned the cobwebs from my head
I shook the memories from my bed
Took all your pictures to the shed
While you were gone
While I was gone
I told the mirror I'd be just fine
I remembered you were never mine
Wondered if it all was just a sign
While I was gone
While you were gone
I patched up my broken heart
I pledged to make a brand new start
Tried hard not to fall apart
While you were gone
While I was gone
I danced thru night and into day
Called my friends to get their say
Swore to take a trip to old Bombay
While I was gone
While you were gone
I thought of dialing nine-one-one
I avoided having any kind of fun
Wondered who had stole the sun
While you were gone
While I was gone
Watched Bridget Jones and Jane Eyre
Dreamed of Cary Grant without a care
Challenged my cat to a deadlock stare
While I was gone
While you were gone
I cried myself to sleep each night
I left over the door a burning light
Wished I could make things right
While you were gone
While I was gone
Kleenex became my new best friend
Chocolate seemed a true Godsend
I stitched this heart but it didn't mend
While I was gone
I’m glad you’re back
I vow I’ll never again let you go
Each day I’ll vow to love you so
This love was only meant to grow
I’m glad you’re back…
I’m glad I’m back
because with you I remember me
and when you smile you're all I see
with you is the only place to be
I’m glad I’m back
Sheila

loved these stanzas lol
While I was gone
and this one
While you were gone
I thought of dialing nine-one-one
I avoided having any kind of fun
Wondered who had stole the sun
While you were gone
Kleenex became my new best friend
Chocolate seemed a true Godsend
I stitched this heart but it didn't mend
While I was gone

Anytime I looked at his eyes it took just two or three seconds and he was out of there, mentally I was contemp sneering at my mother.
