The absence when you left became routine,
Now you’re back and I’m suddenly lost.
Are you once again a permanent fixture in my scene?
We talked, we decided, that being friends was a thing.
The void created by you was cold and frost,
The absence when you left became routine.
Occasional meals and meets when you gave a ring,
Clear and bright like the ring that I tossed,
Are you once again a permanent fixture in my scene?
You disappeared and that wiped the slate clean,
When I tried to talk after you were really pissed.
The absence when you left became routine.
Suddenly you're here in my bed looking lean,
I don't mind - I missed you the most.
Are you once again a permanent fixture in my scene?
I secretly hope that you stay - please don't be mean,
You're still my center - on my ship you're the mast,
The absence when you left became routine,
Are you once again a permanent fixture in my scene?
