A Fine Frenzy - Near To You Lyrics

he and I had something beautiful 
but so dysfunctional, it couldn't last 
I loved him so but I let him go 
'cause I knew he'd never love me back 

such pain as this 
shouldn't have to be experienced 
I'm still reeling from the loss, 
still a little bit delirious 

near to you, I am healing 
but it's taking so long 
'cause though he's gone 
and you are wonderful 
it's hard to move on 
yet, I'm better near to you. 

you and I have something different 
and I'm enjoying it cautiously 
I'm battle scarred, 
but I am working oh so hard 
to get back to who I used to be 

he's disappearing, fading steadily 
well, I'm so close to being yours, 
won’t you stay with me, please 

near to you, I am healing 
but it's taking so long 
'cause though he's gone 
and you are wonderful 
it’s hard to move on 
yet, I'm better near to you 

I only know that 
I am better where you are 
I only know that 
I am better where you are 
I only know that I belong 
where you are 

near to you, I am healing 
but it's taking so long 
'cause though he's gone 
and you are wonderful 
it’s hard to move on 
yet, I'm better near to you
