I heard from a friend that you got a new man
Then I saw a picture of you holding his hand
Only time that I've seen you so happy
Is that night of your surprise birthday
And I never thought that I'd be so happy to see you so happy
I know you're the new you, but back when I knew you
I always thought this day would make you cry
If I was the old me, it would destroy me
But, I found the love of my life
You got yours
And I got mine
The past is in the past, the future's in the future
Sometimes, memories last like perfume on a t-shirt
It's like we drew a map of the world
And we both took off in different directions
If nothing else, losing you led me right here
How could I regret it?
I know you're the new you, but back when I knew you
I always thought this day would make me cry
If I was the old me, it would destroy me
But, I found the love of my life
You got yours
And I got mine
As I'm looking back on life
Like a slideshow in my mind
Oh, I think this one's for the archives
'Cause you and me weren't meant to be
And it's all right
I know you're the new you, but back when I knew you (new you)
I always thought this day would make me cry
If I was the old me (old me), it would destroy me (it would destroy me)
But, I found the love (I found the love) of my life
You got yours
And I got mine
