{...} i
knew you ...everything about you, perhaps
your trademark nod, the boost i need
like a big bear hug or a pat on the back;
your time unbounded, you'll listen
to pointless queries and tales
however tall and jaded
your jokes make me smile
got used to your ways and moves (i guess)
we have a world of bliss
...yet everything we can't have
i have to find my way again
you have to reach your goal
...suppose we should get together again
i won't need your hug or even your time
i will hate your jokes and please
don't make my word your command
Just You Be Near Me
...it would be easier then to part once more
perhaps...
