But I’m your daughter
I sing loudly off key
I knead bread dough,
With my legs crossed,
On the counter top, remember?
I run arms open with grass
Stains on my jeans
I smile and I swing,
Remember?
Those were the days of my life
Those were the days of your life

But I’m your friend, remember?
We stayed up past midnight
We imagined, we thought,
We promised to die for each other
For ever
For eternity and always and back
And i still would.
We had trust and we had money
We had fun and we had lust.
And I’m still here
Those were the days of my life
I’m not so sure about yours.
You seem fine.

But I’m your girl, remember?
Who is she? Why is she here?
I’m the girl you love
You loved
You swore to marry
You swore to close my coffin
And neatly fall into yours
And fold away into eternity with me.
Where’d you go?
You’re still with me.
Am I still in your mind? Soul? Heart?
Those were the days of my life.
Those were the days of our life.

And these are truly the things I miss.
