Why do I still mourn your loss? We haven't been together for years... Amazing what our minds create About who people are: I idolized you-- I put you up on a pedestal and I wouldn't take you down... You had to fall on your own But I still couldn't see That what I wanted us to be Wasn't meant to be. We used each other to point out our faults and then blame them on the other... Until we had only ourselves Left to blame-- We couldn't wake up together, So we woke up alone

Waking Up Alone
Why do I still mourn your loss? We haven't been together for years... Amazing what our minds create About who people are: I idolized you-- I put you up on a pedestal and I wouldn't take you down... You had to fall on your own But I still couldn't see That what I wanted us to be Wasn't meant to be. We used each other to point out our faults and then blame them on the other... Until we had only ourselves Left to blame-- We couldn't wake up together, So we woke up alone
