Out of Sight, Out of Mind
I thought of you today
I never imagined I would
Out of sight out of mind
Or so I hoped
You flew
You grew
You were too close to the sun
I thought I told you
Not to fall
Fall to the ground
Out of sight
Out of mind
But always so close to my still beating heart
Your memory burns into my soul
Forgotten laughs
Secrets still kept
Ideas we had
Plans we had made
Where are they now?
Those dreams we shared?
Out of sight
Out of mind
But I know this for sure
Your memory burnt into my soul
Will never truly be forgotten
Only hidden to protect my broken heart
While you are out of sight
And out of mind
You are never too far away
And I believe that those far from sight
Will be waiting
One day
Arms open wide
Out of sight
Out of mind
Still close to heart
