You're not her, I'm not him
There's no reason to pretend
That life would leave unchanged those kids
We fell in love and then grew up

I still see her once in awhile
She comes back from the dead when you smile
But he's been gone since last July
He finally died

[Chorus:]

I'm sorry, it's over
We won't hurt each other anymore
And I think that's what the people who fell in love would want
I'm sorry, it's over
We won't hurt each other anymore
And it's for the best

His dying words, his last request
"Always do what's for her best"
Keeping you would just have meant
Playing god with what was left

(Chorus)
