eLogical - Once Was (Produced by 9.A.)

Why won't you call me baby?
We can talk about our love
I wanna try and make it
Back into what it once was

It's been 6 months since you went away
And not a day goes by where I do not lay
In bed instead of livin life
Cuz without you there, its just not right
Girl I love you still, that'll never change
Like Han Solo and Princess Leigh--
Astounded by my nerdish charm
If I had one wish I would wrap my arms
Around your back, such a strong impact
Our bodies reunite while I make the catch
Of you jumpin' to my chest sayin' that you miss me
Not a genie in sight, so its just a dream
The scene turns black so vividly
Not a trace of your beauty as far as I can see
I feel like I'm in a constant fall
As I stare at this phone waiting for your call, man..

Why won't you call me baby?
We can talk about our love
I wanna try and make it
Back into what it once was

It's been 12 months since you went away
Not a thing has changed in my day to day
Still starin' at our picture from Christmas Eve
When you gave me that bolt ring for my keys
Inscription said "I'm nuts about you"
Although now that image is very screwed
Just a pendant now, eternally deferred
Cuz theres no more truth left in those words
You moved on now, while I'm left here coarse
To become a successful and prominent force
Such a strong, bright woman that gets what she wants
She's worked so hard her intelligence flaunts
It's just too bad I couldn't walk that path
Right by your side in your second half
Of graduate school while you made your mark
While I mended pieces of a broken heart




Why won't you call me baby?
We can talk about our love..
I wanna try and make it
Back into what it once was

It's been three years since you went away
I say I've moved on but I sit in shame
It's a lie, don't know why I can't move on
Maybe baby is because our bond's so strong
3000 miles away on a different coast
You probablyy don't feel it, but for me its close
It stubbornly took this long for me to see
The reasons that unwillingly made you leave
Didn't care for you, wasn't there for you, now I see it
The loose ends that I left loose, didn't weave it
You deserved much more, I can finally say
Cuz the way I had it, it was like a buffet
So much love in front of me, all along
Didn't know what I had til' it was gone
I'm the reason why our love was so damn choppy
Want to take this moment just to say I'm sorry

Why won't you call me baby?
We can talk about our love..
I wanna try and make it
Back into what it once was
