가사

How can she say she's lost without him?
He's not a compass, he never was
How can she say life has no meaning?
Life meant something before he came along
It still does
How can she say he stole her heart?
You can't steal what's given away
Love isn't blind but sometimes it's short-sighted
And if you're not careful you can lose your way
For as long as I've known her she's either been
With someone, breaking up with someone, or dating
Five or six men looking for that special someone
Her girlfriends were all good-naturedly envious
Of her beauty, her warmth, her sense of humor
Everywhere we'd go she'd always be the center
Of attention without ever trying to be
When he came along, at first they appeared to be an
Unlikely pairing but they did look wonderful together
Soon their differences only served to make them
More attractive to each other and even they
Began to think of themselves as the perfect couple
She was a stunning bride
How can she say she's lost without him?
He's not a compass, he never was
How can she say life has no meaning?
Life meant something before he came along
It still does
How can she say he stole her heart?
You can't steal what's given away
Love isn't blind but sometimes it's short-sighted
And if you're not careful you can lose your way
At the wedding his friends clapped him on the back, congratulated him
Not knowing he never quite felt he measured up to her standards
Neither did he nor did we know that her entire sense of self-
Esteem was directly tied to whomever was the current man in her life
To hear him discuss it, he says that every day during
The last two years of their marriage he was consciously
Inching away, emotionally distancing himself from her
But it was done in such a gradual, imperceptible manner
That when he took that final and to him inevitable
Step out the door, to her it was a bolt out of the blue
The irony of it is in his own way he's just as lost and as hurt and as
Angry about all of this as she is, though she will never believe that
How can she say she's lost without him?
He's not a compass, he never was
How can she say life has no meaning?
Life meant something before he came along
It still does
How can she say he stole her heart?
You can't steal what's given away
Love isn't blind but sometimes it's short-sighted
And if you're not careful you can lose your way
You can lose your way
You can lose your way
