Well, you know what I feel like today? It's like this: the last little while I've been feeling as if - as if I've come back from a long trip away - and I've been continuing on with my life again, but it's only today that I realized something went missing while I was gone. And I think it's you, and I want to see you again so badly I think I'm going blind. So call me.
