You and I

You told me be strong
Never look back, move on
Never stop
Even though you feel like giving up

I'm leaving you tomorrow
Can't stand to see you fight
You'd be better off without me
So I'm leaving at first light

You and I
We almost made it
But the world and love outside
It wasn't on our side

Again I'm touching the bottom
The bottom's always there as my best friend
He talks to me about you now and then
How it tears me apart to think
And see just how I failed

Ending up leaving the one I love
Too proud to show I bailed

You and I
We almost made it
But the world and love outside
It wasn't on our side

You and I
We tried to fake it
You and I
We almost made it

At night I see your portrait
As clearly as the day
It would always haunt me
How did you come my way?

You and I
We almost made it
But the world and love outside
It wasn't on our side

You and I
We tried to fake it
You and I
We almost made it
