Bijou

I drew the curtain back
saw that grey sky
you came flooding into my mind.
For many hours my heart
battled with the aching truth,
how I never stopped waiting for you

Out of the shadow is where he fell
Like a child, I beckoned to him, how could I not?
Before I knew, years had passed
then I found you,
sitting where we sat.

Through his hands I felt his heart.
Through his eyes I saw myself,
in his mind he had puzzled us together,
together.

Despite the many months that I tried
to make you see me.
I still kept up the front of,
the woman that you needed to love.
It was never me...

I've spent my life, waiting for you
for you.
Outside, outside
The Bijou
