He and I
Had something beautiful
But so disfunctional
It couldn't last
Loved him so
But I let him go
Cause I knew he'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

Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah... I'm better near to you

Well you and i
It's something different
I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scared
I am workin' oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be

He's disappearing, fading steadily
When I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me
Please

Cause near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet... I'm better near to you
Yeah... I'm better near to you

I only know that I am better
Where you are
I only know that I am better
Where you are
I only know that I belong
Where you are

Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Near to you
I am healing but it is taking so long
Cause though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on

Yeah... I'm better near to you
Yeah... I'm better near to you
