Tonight I had a dream of you
It's funny because I never even really think of you
But I think that my subconscious needs to catch up to my consciousness
Because being with you was just a mess
And I'm clean now

We met when the snow was starting to fall
Looking at you smiling at me was when I started to fall
But I did my time, I'm done with that
It was time that I can never get back
And honestly, I don't know if I would want to

Because yeah, love is hard
But not loving is even harder
And even though I know a part of my torn heart is always
Going to belong to you,
This person, this idea
This thing so now lost to me
I would never regret it

I don't regret you
I still dream about you
I still wonder how you're doing
I wonder about what other girl's heart that you're ruining
With your stupid smile and teasing laugh
With the quiet voice that said
I don't ever want to hold you back

That was the end of it for us
With 8 words, you gave up on us
I still had it in my heart, I could see what we could be
But when you saw your future, you didn't see me
And that's fine

I'm not a believer in 'the one'
I'm not a believer in that 'perfect someone'
I do think that if a love is meant to turn out, it will
I don't need a man though, to make my heart feel filled
That's ridiculous
