[Starts off pretty slow with light piano accompaniment.]
Things were so much better,
When you loved me last September.
My heart felt so much stronger,
Cause I thought we’d last forever.
Things were so much better,
When you loved me last September.
The loneliness come back for me.
I’m drowning…
I reminisce about the good old days of us,
Even though those days are gone.
Even though it hurts my heart,
And it still makes me cry.
Even though they say you’re worthless,
It doesn’t feel right inside.
[More instruments are being added, drums, strings]
Things were so much better,
When you loved me last September.
Everything was perfect,
You said “I’ll be yours forever”.
Things were so much better,
When you loved me last September.
[Drum fill, climatic part. She's in pain, she's crying out.]
My heart hurts.
I can’t breathe.
What happened?
Why won’t you just talk to me?
I can’t take,
Anymore heart break.
Please….
[All of the music stops and there is silence for a couple of seconds]
[Piano and strings pick back up. It starts off slow and sad and gradually builds momentum and excitment until it's happy and jubilant]
Things are so much better,
Now that it is December.
My heart found someone better,
That won’t lie and say forever.
Things are so much better,
Now that it is December.
[Big]
I… Don’t need you in my life.
I’ve moved on.
My heart is strong.
It’s finally let go,
And said goodbye.
[Starts big and then moves back into the softer, nicer sound of the beginning.]
One of these days,
Oh… You’ll lie awake.
You’ll think about the good old days.
You’ll sit and wonder how I am,
Pick up the phone, find my number,
Before you realize you can’t.
And I’m fine with that.
Things are so much better,
Then they were last September.
You lied and said forever,
And this time I know better.
Things are so much better,
Now that it is December.
