I saw me today through a look on your face.
Why was I ugly? You feared my embrace
and you didn't notice the change in your eyes,
but I saw the transition from love to despise.
How could you change everything so quickly around?
The devotion you claimed was forever can nowhere be found.
Well, I guess you used up your affection and now you're free,
and you know I will be so glad when the same thing happens to me.
'Cause you left me behind and it wasn't fair.
You raced to the end to a finish we were supposed to share.
You left behind and now you're free,
but I'm still chained to yesterday at the start of "you and me."
"It's been awhile now," you said, saddened voiced
Hope we can still be friends? Well, do I have a choice?
And you didn't notice the change in your eyes
as mine I made ready--ready to cry.
How could you change everything so quickly around?
The devotion you claimed was forever can nowhere be found.
Well, I guess you used up your affection and now you're free.
And you know I will be so glad when the same thing happens to me.
'Cause you left me behind -- it wasn't fair.
You raced to the end to a finish we were supposed to share.
You left me behind and now you're free, you're free
but I'm still chained to yesterday at the start of "you and me."
Oh how could I change everything so quickly around?
The devotion I thought was forever can nowhere be found.
Well, I guess I used up my affection and I'm free, I'm free
to find someone for whom the concept of love is not so confusing.
I saw me today though a look on his face.
Pure beauty, beloved embrace.
And you know, I didn't notice a change in my eyes.
Perhaps they were resting, not needing to cry.
not needing to cry, not needing to cry
