Post 430: Walking in Ellensburg (4/17/10)

Walking in Ellensburg (3/5/10 c, 4/17/10 w)

Walking in the shadows of my life
Trying to figure out where it all went wrong
With you, I guess we were never meant to be
Then why can’t I forget you completely
Could it be you’re the closest, the closest I’ve gotten
Gotten to something real

Past the campus and our old haunt, Kamola hall
Where I fell for you, though I didn’t know how to
Past the Grand Cinema, we would go walking
So many movies I saw with you
I didn’t know how to give a proper date, I still don’t
Down to Rodeo records where I would by a tune

Walking in Ellensburg
The memories come rushing back
It still feels a little like back then, but so much has changed
Isn’t it strange
Walking in Ellensburg

Taking a tour of the Central campus
That I used to walk hand in hand with you
Past the dining hall where we ate our food
Before hanging out in your room

Standing outside looking in at the residence hall
I still hear my old room 227 call
Brining up unfulfilled dreams
I wish I could have shared with you

How could I forget the TV room
Where we spent so much time, time alone
Until your Japanese roommate Yukari went home

Walking in Ellensburg
The memories come rushing back
It still feels a little like back then, but so much has changed
Isn’t it strange
Walking in Ellensburg

Now I walk past Hebeler hall
Where you almost always were
Writing your code, or what else I do not know

Spending so much of my time
Wishing you were mine
But now those days have long gone
When I could have been with you

It’s kind of a sad thought knowing all that you could have been
But it’s time to bury those dreams
And restart my, restart my life
Just this last time, ending tonight

Walking in Ellensburg
The memories come rushing back
It still feels a little like back then, but so much has changed
Isn’t it strange
Walking in Ellensburg
