Heard
written by Micah Justice
I remember long ago when I looked into your eyes, heard you say you loved me, but you just lied
I remember you took me away for the day. So happy, and free.
It didn’t stay that way
I traveled through the continent searching for something new
thought I’d found it when I thought I found you
Could have sworn you felt the same; you had wanted me near
but today..you don’t want me here
I heard what I wanted to, heard that you needed me too,
but now you walk away
Heard what I wanted to, heard that you loved me too,
and now you’ve no more to say.
We both worked oh so hard,
living life on our own.
We sneak away for lovin, there was kissing, there was hugging,
I thought it was for real.
Finally, let go of doubt, finally let go of fear
All my prior wounds were being held
I heard what I wanted to, heard that you needed me to, but now you
walk away
Heard what I wanted to, heard that you loved me too and now you’ve no more to say
Now I can’t sleep through the nights,
without thoughts of you dancing through my head.
I can’t sleep through the night
without imagining your arms holding me in
I hear your laughter down the hall
Feel you by my side
I wake alone instead
It’s all in my mind
I heard what I wanted to, heard that you needed me to, but now you
walk away
Heard what I wanted to, heard that you loved me too, and now you’ve
no more to say
