[bodytext] => I blocked that place out years ago; Those days we used to play together Forced out of my mind along with childhood. It was seven years ago; I remembered the other day. Never once have I thought of you before then; Never did I allow myself to enter that time of my life. I passed our old neighbourhood. The child imprisoned inside me led me down the road, Stopped me outside your garage – Of course, you weren’t there. A wild part of me imagined you were; behind the door, Waiting for me to go in, guitar poised. I know that was just a dream. I missed you as our music haunted my mind, You playing the notes, singing Like that was all that mattered in your life. The day you were taken away from the music Lies fresh in my mind, although placid - Undisturbed for seven years. A tear rolled down my face, landing With an unmistakable chord on the floor. I stayed outside your garage for five hours, Until I looked at my watch and realised Our practice was over.
