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
[Chorus:] 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, I am working oh so hard To get back to who I used to be
He's disappearing Fading steadily And I'm so close to being yours Won't you stay with me? Please
'Cause...
[Chorus]
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
