there are moments
i remember
the you
you used to be

they fill my heart
and a piece of me
misses the you
you used to be

although i would never
want to replace
the you you are
with that you before now

because the you
you are now
is all your yous
you have been

except the you
you will be tomorrow
who i will choose over
the you you used to be
