she and i had something beautiful...
but so dysfunctional, it couldn't last...
i loved her so...but i let her go..
'cause i knew she'd never love me back...

such pain as this shouldn't have to be experienced,
i'm still reeling from the loss, still a little bit delirious...

with you and i have something different,
and i'm enjoying it...cautiously..
i'm battle scarred,
i'm working oh , so hard to get back to who i used to be..

she's disappearing, fading steadily..
i'm so close to being yours...won't you stay with me..? please...

'cause near to you, i'm healing but it's taking so long...
'cause though she's gone, and you are wonderful,
it's hard to move on..
yeah, i'm better near to you...  ♫
