Only to realize it never really was
Someday, somewhere, she will return
He never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else would surely know
Where he can still believe
No wise man has the power to reason away
She had a place in his life
Tryin' hard to recreate
No wise man has the power
He's watching her go
But what a fool believes, he sees
For his nostalgic tale
She musters a smile
What a fool believes, he sees
What she wanted to say
And nothing at all
What had yet to be created once in her life
She had a place in his life
Keeps sending him
Sentimental fools don't see
There's a place in her life
He never made her think twice
Is always better than nothing
To reason away, what seems to be
Somewhere back in her long ago
Never coming near
What seems to be
Is always better than nothing
