Cliche break up song.

You drew me a picture,
as beautiful as can be.
the picture was a dream,
it was the future of you and me.

I look at it now,
it looks like nothing but a fable.
just a tale from a story book.
with the prince who saves the princess and happily they live,
but it's only a dream.
Just a dream.

You weren't there to watch me strive,
watch me fall, and help me rise.
you didn't make me feel like I could fly.
Every word, gesture and line,
was only a lie.
Nothing but a lie.

And it wasn't you who held my hand,
or made me feel better.
It wasn't you who gave me their sweater,
to help me through the cold new york weather.
sure you made me smile,
and yeah it lasted a while.
but if i could get through today alone,
I'll make it through tomorrow.

It's just another cliche break up song,
the kind that comes straight from the heart.
because being with you is where i want to be,
but the secret is i know it's not for me.
