Hard To Kill

The sour pit in my stomach

Turns even more sour

As you and I lock eyes

The past is still alive

In my heart

I hope it's only for today

The past...that is what we are...

The past where we were in love

The past, crossing fingers

Oh, I miss you

And it seems like

I will for awhile

Because the past

Is hard to kill
