...language is leaving me." - Joseph Hughes and David Freeman, sung by Annie Lennox.

Okay, so I'm not over the lyrics phase.

You know who you are. Here are all the things I can't say to your face.

Is she funnier than me?
Is she smarter than me?
Is she prettier than me?
Are you the person with her that you were with me?
Does she find your policeman song funny?
Can you sing your policeman song to her?
Does she touch your face the way I did when you'll kiss?
Do you talk to her every night like you talked to me?
Do you'll say goodnight the way we did?

I know I don't want the things you want but...
I can't bear the thought of any girl being the bride at your wedding.
I can't bear the thought of her waking up every morning next to you.
I can't bear the thought of her being pregnant with your children.
I can't bear the thought of her growing old with you.
I can't bear the thought of her being your best friend.

It was supposed to be me.

Is she really better than me?

You don't have to answer that.

I'm sorry for all the things I said when I was bitter. I didn't mean them. I was trying to hurt you where it hurt the most because that was the only thing I could do. I was never a good loser.

I guess besides that I've become a dog in the manger.

I hope time does what it should and one day I look at this with embarrassment. I wish you the best I can wish for and one day, I hope I mean it.
