He came from somewhere back in her long
ago
The sentimental fool don't see

Tryin' hard to recreate
What had
yet to be created once in her life


She musters a smile
For his

nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to

realize
It never really was


She had a place in his life
He never
made her think twice

As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely
know

He's watching her go

But what a fool believes he sees

No wise
man has the power to reason away
What seems to be

Is always better than
nothing
And nothing at all keeps sending him...


Somewhere back in her
long ago

Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday,
somewhere, she will return


She had a place in his life
He never made

her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely

know
He's watching her go


But what a fool believes he sees
No wise
man has the power to reason away

What seems to be
Is always better than
nothing

There's nothing at all
But what a fool believes he
sees...
