Sometimes I Still Feel The Bruise

Trembling Blue Stars

This is just to say "hello" 
And to let you know 
I think of you from time to time 
I know I never really knew you 
But somehow I miss you 
And wish that you'd stayed in my life 

Making contact gets harder 
As the silence grows longer 
And isn't it only me 
Who'd like us to see each other? 
How I would hate to be a bother 
The way we left it was you'd ring 

I'm under no illusion 
As to what I meant to you 
But you made an impression 
And sometimes I still feel the bruise 
Sometimes I still feel the bruise 

Now and then I stumble on 
What I've misplaced but never lost 
An ache I first felt long ago 
Though you've appeared and disappeared 
Throughout these past few years 
I'd be surprised if you now showed 

Making contact gets harder 
As the silence grows longer 
And why would you think of me 
When you were not the one in love? 
When you were not the dreamer? 
When you were just the dream?
