He came from somewhere back in her long ago The sentimental fool don't see Trying hard to recreate what was 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 What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away What seems to be is always better than nothing, than nothing at all Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago Where he can still believe there's a place in her life Some day, 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 What a fool believes he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away What seems to be is always better than nothing, than nothing at all
