Time's gone by, but my sadness hasn't left.
Everyone said it'll go, but it hasn't.
I heard your voice on your answering machine.
It feels like it's never gonna leave.
Like...Like when you told me about the butterfly.
And how it'll fly away.
I didn't know you were gonna go.
You said that the butterfly would come back, but it hasn't.
I remember when, you told me about the mermaid,
and how other people put cigarettes out on her,
but she was the most beautiful mermaid in the world.
I know that... maybe that was you.
And I didn't take care of it.
I'm sorry. I just... don't know how.
But maybe one day I will.
But maybe then you'll know... that we should be.
