I'm sorry, 
I can't afford you. 
It's so messed up anyway. 
It's kind of sad; 
I can't reward you. 
It's so messed up anyway. 
But in another time, and in another place, 
I'm gonna tell you to your face '
You ran in circles, and what a stupid waste, cause 
I'm the one you need.' 
I saw the future; 
I made it up. 
You were too young to be awestruck. 
Paper hearts; we tore the tissue 
Ripped apart, and now 
I'm missing you 
But in another time, and in another place, 
I'm gonna tell you to your face, '
You ran in circles, and what a stupid waste, cause 
I'm the one you need.' 
But you're safe, and say you'll let me stay; 
I need to feel this way 
I know it's so cliche, but 
I'm tired inside each day 
And I know you're thinking '
Oh, God, what a waste.' 
But in another time, and in another place, 
I'm gonna tell you to your face '
You ran in circles, and what a stupid waste, cause 
I'm the one you need.' . . . 
I'm the one you need . . . . . . 
I'm the one you need . . .
