I thought his face
would be etched in my mind
for all our lives.
I thought the plains from his chin
to his eyes
were memorized.
I thought his voice
would be like an old song
that tumbles through my mind.
I thought that laugh
deep and clear
would haunt my sleep.
His old familiar face
is not the boy I loved
His old familiar face
is not what I dream of
His old familiar face
has slowly been replaced
and I’m alone.
I thought his smile
would light up the world
even on my darkest days
I thought his words
would always rebuild
my broken soul
His old familiar face
is not the boy I loved
His old familiar face
is not what I dream of
His old familiar face
has slowly been replaced
and I’m alone.
His old familiar eyes
are all that’s left of us
His old familiar eyes
still show me who I am
But my old familiar face
is not the girl I used to see
My old familiar face
is not the girl he loved
My old familiar face
is gone
My old familiar face
got lost in you for hours
My old familiar face
waited out the hours and miles
My old familiar face
cried when you left
But my old familiar face
is gone
His old familiar face
is not the boy I loved
His old familiar face
is not what I dream of
His old familiar face
has slowly been replaced
and I’m alone.
