Haven't Seen You In Years - Socratic

Did I forget or have I really lost my mind?

Should I care about any soul but mine?

It’s true that time will heal my crimes,

but it don’t have the time to heal me

Hey old lady, remember the boy that loved you?

Well he grew up thinking of you way too much

He didn’t watch you grow,

doesn’t think of you as old,

just a young girl he never got to know

Oh but I

I haven’t seen you in years

Oh but I

I haven’t seen you in years

I talk and talk to anyone that will listen

I tell those ears I’m finally finishing wrapping gifts for all the birthdays I

missed

Happy Birthday for every one of those years

It’s a crazy world

and we’ll just both start in it

Take my hand and I will rescue you from it

into this perfect world where you’re dressed in pearls

We’ll get married before our families in a church

Oh but I

I haven’t seen you in years

Oh But I

I haven’t seen you in years

It’s been long, but I still obsess

It might be weird, but I must confess

I can see there’s something wrong with me,

but thinking you’re every tan brunnette I see

I dream how you look like now,

I haven’t seen you in years
