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 is 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 will 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
