I'll Miss You _{(Even Though I Hardly Know You)}

Of all the people that walk down this street,
I'll miss you the most.
We make casual eye contact,
Complete stranger to complete stranger,
And in those golden topaz eyes,
I can see your whole life:

You have a boyfriend,
And you want to leave him because he drinks and smokes,
But he's too possessive to let you go.

You love your mother,
And you love all your siblings,
But you hate your father for leaving your family behind.

You're a natural blonde,
And you looked beautiful with blonde hair,
But you changed it because some idiot told you otherwise.

You're a clerk at a grocery store,
And you can do better,
But you don't because you're afraid of failure.

In the fleeting moments my gaze meets yours,
I know all about you.
Can you see the same in me?

And as you walk away, your existence burned into my mind,
I think about all you've gone through
And I secretly miss you.
