Trajectories

We both see the moonlight, the same shade of blue We both like to start things and not see them through Two hopeless romantics from a bygone era I've come to realize, you're bygone too There are places to go, wonders to see I had hope in my bones you would see them with me I thought you were my person, the one I would keep 'Cause the love I have for you it runs through me deep Though it could still work out differently For now, this is the way that it has to be Though we're the same person, unfortunately We're on our own trajectories We both like old movies in black and white How I long for the times we would watch them at night In those little moments, I knew you were mine You needn't tell me, I know it crossed your mind And I learnt my lesson, I learned the hard way That real love is selfless, sounds like something you'd say But as long as you're happy then I'm happy too And the hurt that I feel will remind me of you Though it could still work out differently For now, this is the way that it has to be Though we're the same person, unfortunately We're on our own trajectories
