I thought I meant something to you
Once, I watched for you out a window.
Once, I watched for you through a computer screen.
Once, I watched for you from beyond a door.
You meant something to me
I thought we had something
Once, I waited for you behind a window.
Once, I waited for you behind a computer screen.
Once, I waited for you behind a door.
You were everything to me
I thought it would go on forever
Once, I wondered if I would always watch for you out the window.
Once, I wondered if I would always watch for you through a computer screen.
Once, I wondered if I would always watch for you from beyond a door.
You were forever in those moments
Now I just think
Did you watch for me from behind the window?
Did you watch for me from behind a computer screen?
Did you watch for me from behind a door?
I don’t think so
Is it any wonder
That I stopped waiting out of windows
That I stopped waiting through computer screens
That I stopped waiting beyond doors
Why would I bother
Not just those things
I stopped hoping
I stopped dreaming
I stopped taking the risk
I don’t want to put myself out there yet again
Only to be forgotten
While I’m stuck wondering
What could have been
I no longer do those things
Because I’m still waiting for you.
Even though I don’t want to.

No, this isn't about unrequited love. Well, in a way it is. But not the usual kind.
I did my best. It's just something I had to do.
