Oh, There You are

I am raising a glass up, to celebrate me

for the things in my heart, that no-one else sees

I've tried to be everything, others needed me be

I took out a notice, and started looking for me

it seems I was lost, though I don't recall how

when I look in the mirror, I don't recognize her now

that face looking back, looks so broken and down

not at all like the one I've been hauling around

but I can't recall the last time, I took a good look

I suppose I could let myself, off of that hook

I'll come back to get you, I said to myself

to the one I'd left sitting, all alone on that shelf

I never intended to leave you behind

never meant to be thoughtless, cruel or unkind

so, I grabbed up a flashlight, and went looking for me

to tell her I'm sorry and then, set her free
