Grow Up And Apart

- originally written July 27, 2008 -

I understand, we will grow up and apart
Life will take us in different directions
Time and distance will distract my heart
And I will make some new connections

You'll go on in your own directions and choices
You will become a person I won't have a hand in
So many people, different places and new voices
There are so many theories you still have to spin

But promise me that somewhere down the line
Someday far from now, far from this place
We'll meet and our stories will again intertwine
And our lives will take on that long lost grace

We'll dance that dance we always swore we would
We'll take that walk we always meant to take together
Finally figure out everything we ever misunderstood
And from there on out we'll always keep each other
