I happen to see you today
Walking along the street
I was so very happy
That we would chance to meet
When we saw each other
Our eyes grew open wide
It was our excitement
That neither one could hide
It had been a while
Since our eyes had met
Knowing that what we shared
We will never forget
But it seemed like something
Inside of me was amiss
It's been such a long time
That I have felt like this
To be completely honest
I no longer feel the same
I don't want to say
That anyone is to blame
It seems the time between us
Has driven us apart
Inside my heart I believe
That we should both be smart
I believe we are better off
Staying where we are
I know it may sound funny
It may even seem bizarre
But what I once felt for you
It's not there anymore
I feel that long ago
We got what we asked for
You called an end to us
You made it very clear
That any time for us
Was no longer here
So, I have to tell you
Let's just leave it this way
I feel for you and I
This is the better way
So I wish for you
Nothing but the best
But I think the time is now
That we put us to rest
The love we use to share
Was truly a great love
But it's no longer you
That I always think of
That's not a bad thing
So, please don't take it wrong
But I believe us together
Is a place where we don't belong
