The story of our first date
Is just like a fairy tale
He’s the guy you meet before
A date destined to fail
The conversation flowed
Just like a frozen lake
Before we got to dinner
I knew this was a mistake
I could feel time ticking by
As we ate in silence
I was glad not to hear more
Of his work in finance
Sometimes I think I’m better off by myself
Dinners for one
Don’t feel so bad
I’m fine on my own
No overnight bag
Without you here
I can feel that spark
And my beating heart
Enjoy my life at last
Without you here
And all that I could do
The truth I never knew
Is that I don’t miss you
I gave us a second chance
Fast forward to next year
With our white picket fence
Life was sitting in first gear
Every night was the same
I’m making lists in my head
Or just lying awake while
He plays with me in our bed
I didn’t know what was wrong
But this didn’t feel right
Shouldn’t I love you by now
Instead I just think you’re nice
Sometimes I think I’m better off by myself
Dinners for one
Don’t feel so bad
I’m fine on my own
No overnight bag
Without you here
I can feel that spark
And my beating heart
Enjoy my life at last
Without you here
And all that I could do
The truth I never knew
Is that I don’t miss you
I can’t do this anymore
I just can’t live this way
Life shouldn’t be a chore
I want to enjoy each day
Being with you was like
Nails on a chalk board
You aren’t what I want in life
I left your things by the door
Dinners for one
Don’t feel so bad
I’m fine on my own
No overnight bag
Without you here
I can feel that spark
And my beating heart
Enjoy my life at last
Without you here
And all that I could do
The truth I never knew
Is that I don’t miss you
Love
Roxanne
