Sometimes it takes a bad situation to put you back in the right frame of mind
I'm now happy with your visitation, but I'm still glad that we ran out of time
'Cuz when you left I found myself, and I can't thank you enough
You taught me that there's always an upside to being in love

I fell apart when you left, 'cuz I didn't realize what I'd gain
I know that I tried my best, though you didn't do the same
I put my best foot forward, and you held open the door
I went across the border when you left me at the shore
