lyrics

Day after day, I try to carry on,
Night after night, I don’t sleep through.
People say I’ve changed ever since you’ve been gone,
I’ll never be myself without you.

I’m out on the town just to see what I can find,
If only a lighter shade of blue.
I’m still searching for the me that you didn’t leave behind,
I’ll never be myself without you.

After all is said and done, I thought you were the one,
I could have spent a lifetime loving you,
But now it’s plain to see I’m not your cup of tea,
I’m just a phase that you went through.

I know other loves are bound to come along,
But they’ll never have me like you do,
I think I’ll be all right, but I always get it wrong,
I’ll never be myself without you.

After all is said and done, I thought you were the one,
I could have spent a lifetime loving you,
But now it’s plain to see I’m not your cup of tea,
I’m just a phase that you went through.

You went away with the last piece of my heart,
and to be fair, you never knew,
But I can’t pull it together since you tore it all apart,
I’ll never be myself without you,
I’ll never be myself without you.
