I have poured out my heart,
Laid it right here for you
And I've tried so hard,
That's the best that I can do
Please understand I am not who I was

You used to be all that I had,
Now you're just not what I need
I've got to get over you
And I know then I can get back to me

Tears forget, that's more than I can do
'Cause they don't wash away,
All the things that we've been through
I've put behind me my share of the shame,
We could call villains but it's all in vain

You used to be all that I had,
Now your just not what I need
I've got to get over you
And I know then I can get back to me

All of my life I've waited, hoping
Wanting you to see me the way that I am
But now I know that I'm not alone
Someone understands

You used to be all that I had,
Now you're just not what I need
I've got to get over you
And I know then I can get back to me

You've got to know that
You used to be all that I had,
(You used to be all that I had)
Now you're just not what I need
(Now you're just not what I need)
I've got to get over you
And I know then I can get back to me
Then I get back to me
(Then I get back to me)
Then I get back to me

    General Comment:This is my favorite song on the new album, Time of My Life.
    To me, it's about him losing himself in a relationship and trying to explain it to his girlfriend. He has become a different person and he wants to end things so that he can become himself again. He's put away the past and now he's moving on and he's found somebody that understands him.
