Oh, By The Way

-Sean Anthony Lopez

Despite the self-help books
I know how this looks
When I open up the wound
Scroll through love-lost posts
As I go coast to coast
Looking for what it is I lost
Though people tell me still
I can't change how I will ever feel
I want you now
As much as I ever did
I want you now
And that ain't ever changing

I've been pulled around
I've been lost and found
But my hand stays off the gun
I know you're doing well
At least, as far as I can tell
But I know you still think of me sometimes
Though people tell me still
I can't change how I will ever feel
I want you now
As much as I ever did
I want you now
And that ain't ever changing

And you know
I must follow my heart
You know
I can only follow my heart
And I know
That I'll hopelessly go on
I know
That I can only express my feelings in this song
In this song that you won't hear

Oh, by the way
Yes, I am okay
I just miss your face to death
I miss that pretty smile
And laughing more than a while
I miss the goofy little things
Though people tell me still
I can't change how I will ever feel
I want you now
As much as I ever did
I want you now
And that ain't ever changing
