Something to someone

I could use an explanation
To put it all behind
We were basically strangers
Killing time
I could ask you but it wouldn't be fair
To cast a stone on you in case you've got nothing to say
Maybe there's a reason
It all happened this way
Why can't I put a label on it, place it on the shelf
Open up a new box, ready for somebody else
Why can't I do that
In a couple years
I won't even remember
But right now I wish it was last September
Cause this time and place
You're only getting further away
And if there's nothing left to say
I hope that you'll think of me one day
Cause it's been fun
And you can tell your kids you meant something to someone
I could use an explanation
To put it all behind
It was a competition not communication
Between your ego and my pride
Can't even ask you anymore
You shut me out and locked the door
Someday I'll get through this yeah I'm sure
But right now
I can't put a title to it
And place it on the shelf
Open a new chapter
Ready for somebody else
Why can't I do that
In a couple years
I won't even remember
But right now I wish it was last September
Cause this time and place
You're only getting further away
And if there's nothing left to say
I hope you'll think of me one day
Cause it's been fun
And you can tell your kids you meant something to someone
In a couple years
I won't even remember
But right now I wish it was last September
Cause this time and place
You're only getting further away
