Hours of hiding, spent apart
The wall was all we’d share
About the closest you could get
About all I would bear
Don’t tell me all the things I wasn’t
Could have made this big a difference
To all the things you are
Years of listening, taking in
To one day take away
From all the guilt and pity I could
Barely keep at bay
Don’t tell me all the things I wasn’t
Could have made this big a difference
To all the things you are
The time apart, I’ve realised
Remains the most we’ve shared
Unlike you there’s no way
I could spend forever there
Don’t tell me all the things I wasn’t
Could have made this big a difference
To all the things you are
