He shows up from nowhere
And asks you how you've been
Ask him what he wants to know
As if he really cares how you feel,

You're his jilted love so doesn't he know
The music of his love has been singing in your soul
He said he loved you once so can't he see
His own reflection in tears rolling down you cheeks,

In his arms he once held you
So don't tell me he can't hear
Your cry tearing the silent night
When you recall and sit up from sleep,

He's touched you in the dark
So why can't he feel that
You're running away from this nightmare
You're still crying in your sleep,

I still recall the day he walked away
But I also remember when you walked with him
And now he stands drowning you in his eyes
And he still needs to ask how you've been,

A jilted love, but love that was true
And now I want to know that doesn't he breath
The lingering scent now faint in his skin
The very scent that once belonged to you.

For a very special friend. May she always be cherished and loved!
