Was it everything you dreamed of?
Are you happy that you left?
Or is there something you wanted you shouldn't have tried to forget?

Is the bed so wide and empty?
Like the vacuum of space?
Is there a moment you miss that you find that you cannot replace?

Do you ever feel you're sinking?
Like you're unable to move?
Though I may not be beside you
I wholeheartedly approve
I just thought that you should know
Ever tried and true
Though you may not even miss me
I still think of you

Was it everything you dreamed of?
Yeah, did you get to live the dream?
Or do you clutch at your pillow at night as you try not to scream?
Was it everything you wanted?
Are you satisfied at last?
Is there some penitent bone in your body that wants to come back?

Is there anybody out there?
Are we totally alone?
Though I may not be beside you
I may yet pick up the phone
I just thought that I should tell you
Because I'm ever tried and true
Though I'm way off in the sidelines
I still think of you

Though I recollect quite fondly
I am glad to see you gone
Because the hours you wasted with me, they were bad, they were wrong
If there's anyone who's worth it
Who it's worth for me to lose
I will admit it, okay? It was worth it for me to lose you.
Though I may not be beside you
Life will always find a way
Though it's awful that you left, I'm glad you didn't stay

There's no Happy Ever After
There's no "Guess this is farewell..."
There's just this hole in my heart and a hand on a dueling bell
It's just something best forgotten
That we never shall replace
It's just the mem'ry of how, when we kissed, there was warmth in your face

Though I sometimes feel I'm sinking
Like I'm unable to move
I just pretend you are beside me
That you thoroughly approve
And I just thought that you should know
Because I'm ever tried and true
Though it's just a faded memory
I still think of you
