Your day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all her words
Of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you.
She wakes up,
She makes up
She takes her time
And doesn't feel she has to hurry:
She no longer needs you.
And in her eyes, you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one,
A love that should have lasted years.
You want her, you need her
And yet you don't believe her
When she says her love is dead —
You think she needs you.
You stay home, she goes out.
She says that long ago
She knew someone
But now he's gone
She doesn't need him
Your day breaks, your mind aches
There will be times when all the things
She said will fill your head —
You won't forget her.
