Frey

Nothing I could say would mean a thing,
but I guess there's no harm in trying.
I can hold my own in any fair fight,
as long as I don't have to admit you were right.

Soon I'll be gone. Just carry on,
you don't need me anymore.
Once you were mine, but you're doing fine.
I don't know what you thought you needed me for.

You always say you've got to finish what you start,
but if I don't the world's not gonna fall apart.
And if I stay much longer it just might,
so I'm glad I don't have to admit you were right.

Soon I'll be gone. Just carry on,
you don't need me anymore.
Once you were mine, but you're doing fine.
I don't know what you thought you needed me for.

The days were rare when you felt like conversing.
It always felt like we were just rehearsing.
And I always got some kind of silly stage fright
whenever I had to admit you were right.

Soon I'll be gone. Just carry on,
you don't need me anymore.
Once you were mine, but you're doing fine.
I don't know what you thought you needed me for.

I guess it's too late for me now to reform.
I'll go out on the porch and listen to the storm,
and stay up late if it keeps raining all night.
In the morning I'll have to admit you were right.

Soon I'll be gone. Just carry on,
you don't need me anymore.
Once you were mine, but you're doing fine.
I don't know what you thought you needed me for.

Soon I'll be gone. I'll be more withdrawn.
You're not even gonna notice me.
I'm just passing through, but I'm gonna miss you,
and I dare to hope that you might miss me.

Soon I'll be gone. Just carry on.
Once you were mine, but you're doing fine.
