[Verse 1]
I wanted to say something beautiful
But it didn't turn out that way
To say something to make things right
But you're not listening anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
When sadness turns to anger
Resentment's coming next
After dumping me the way you did
What did you expect?

[Chorus]
But we had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
For a long, long time

[Verse 2]
One day you sat me down to talk
But your reasons made no sense
6 months of holding in your feelings
Came at my expense

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't believe, still can't believe
How many months have passed
Can't believe that you and me
Are now part of the past
[Chorus]
'Cause we had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
And you threw it all away

[Bridge]
People walk into your life
Sharing something deep and strong
But just as quickly disappear
They leave forever gone
So, don't wait for that phone to ring
The silence is too loud
Get used to the idea
People always let you down

[Pre-Chorus]
I felt so comfortable with you
I could really be myself
Even though you broke things off
It still felt like success

[Chorus]
'Cause we had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
And you had something beautiful
[Chorus]
Yeah we had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
We had something beautiful
For a long, long time…
