You Were the One

You snuck up from behind

The chloroform the kerchief did find my face

A tiny teal tattoo

Is all I got from you

Now when I sleep I see two pictures of you and me

And usually, I wake up cryin'

I close my right

I see the misty night we met

And we were dancing

To the sound of a gypsy band by the sea

I fall back in love when my right eye is closed

But my left eye knows what's in sight

I close my left

I see the last words you said

Bold and italicized, font size 45, and underlined

It said goodbye, goodbye

Know how I tried

Goodbye, my dear, it says goodbye

Whoa now I can't help stare blinking at the sun

And think about how you were the only one

The shadow of your sketch etched staring at me

From inside each optical cavity

You were the one
