With bottle in hand, Severus turned on music, and set quill to parchment.
I am not the only traveler
Who has not repaid his debt
I've been searching for a trail to follow again
Take me back to the night we met
You act like I never existed. You won’t even talk to me anymore. I hope the grass was greener. I hope you got everything you wanted, because I never would have done this to you.
And then I can tell myself
What the hell I'm supposed to do
And then I can tell myself
Not to ride along with you
I gave you everything you have ever wanted and you returned an empty heart. I never expected us to end, I had such high hopes for us.
I had all and then most of you
Some and now none of you
Take me back to the night we met
I don't know what I'm supposed to do
Haunted by the ghost of you
Oh, take me back to the night we met
Recreation of a time before, lives cut too short. Will she ever see you for just you? Or are you her Chosen One ? One day you are going to realize that I truly cared about you Harry. That I loved you unconditionally. That I would go above and beyond for you, and I would yet again sacrifice myself for you.
When the night was full of terrors
And your eyes were filled with tears
When you had not touched me yet
Oh, take me back to the night we met
I promise one day you will miss me being there, putting up with you, dealing with all your trauma, and refusing to give up on us. On you..
You will regret walking out on me, and all the damage you caused letting me find out from The Prophet of all places!
I know you won’t be coming back My Love. I know you were over me the minute you left, without so much as a glance back.
I hope that you love her the way I loved you
