I must be crazy to tell you what Im telling you now
Its kinda personal but Im way beyond being proud
I just spent a year saying no to this man chasing me down
Then he got over me the minute I turned around
I was so hell bent on being alone
A left-over dream I should have out-grown
Now its too little too late
Ive been replaced
Why did I wait so long?
Just a few minutes too late
The tables have turned
And what have I learnt?
That life is better lived with open eyes
My eyes were closed
And now Im watching him go
I look at couples made of people who just wanna be free
It proves the grass is always greener if they wanna be me
Even the mention of her name brings a smile to his face
It isnt easy to admit it but hes in a good place
No longer hell bent on being alone
A left-over dream Ive finally out-grown
But its too little too late
Ive been replaced
Why did I wait so long?
Just a few minutes too late
The tables have turned
And what have I learnt?
That life is better lived with open eyes
I gave too little too late
Ive been replaced
Why did I wait so long?
Just a few minutes too late
The tables have turned
And what have I learnt?
That life is better lived with open eyes
My eyes were closed
And now Im watching him go
