Were you staying up

With you pallet full of colors

Of sage green

Were you listening for the wind and trees

Were you waiting

Inquiring whether there was an expectation or anticipation for the speaker's presence.

For me to be your canvas

Suggesting a metaphorical act of the speaker being transformed into a canvas through the other person's perception.

Or was I

Raising the question of whether the speaker was an expected or unplanned element in the other person's life.

A surprise

I'm not the same since you painted me as a forest

I'm not going to let this be

The last time I see you I said

When I close my eyes tonight

Anticipating the memory of the other person to linger in the speaker's thoughts when closing their eyes.

You'll be going around in my head

Emphasizing the persistent nature of the other person's presence in the speaker's mind.

And I know

It's always harder for me to say goodbye
