He and I, it's somethin' beautiful
But so dysfunctional, 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, yeah
Near to you, I am healin'
But it is takin' 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 somethin' different
And I'm enjoyin' it as cautiously
I'm battle scarred, I am workin' oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be
He's disappearin'
Fadin' steadily
When I'm so close to bein' yours
Won't you stay with me, please?
'Cause near to you, I am healin'
But it is takin' 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 healin'
But it's takin' so long
Though he's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Near to you, I am healin'
But it's takin' 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
