The Loneliness Is Mine

It's more than two years now
when I left you for the first time,
it was I who moved on
yet the loneliness was mine!

I miss the sprightliness of yours,
I miss your chastity,
I miss the restlessness of yours,
I miss your originality,
yet I moved on
and the loneliness was mine!

You gave me the best of your love,
you taught me to take it easy,
you kept me alive,
you fetched my lying eyes honesty,
yet I moved on.
But I can't tell you why
the loneliness was mine!

I know you want to walk me home,
but I am a big big girl now,
I know you want to take me to your heart again,
but I will have to move on.
And
the loneliness will be mine,
Oh Calcutta!
the loneliness will be mine!
