Near to You.

he and I had something beautiful
but so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
I loved him so but I let him go
'cause I knew he'd never love me back

such pain as this
shouldn't have to be experienced
I'm still reeling from the loss,
still a little bit delirious

near to you, I am healing
but it's taking so long
'cause though he's gone
and you are wonderful
it's hard to move on
yet, I'm better near to you.

you and I have something different
and so much better than i could ever want
I'm battle scarred,
but you are working oh so hard
to get me back to who I used to be

he's disappearing, fading steadily
well, im completely yours now, thankfully
won't you continue drawing near to me

near to you, I am healing
but it's taking so long
'cause though he's gone
and you are wonderful
it's hard to move on
yet, I'm better near to you

I only know that
I am better where you are
I only know that
I am better where you are
I only know that I belong
where you are

near to you, I am healing
but it's taking so long
'cause though he's gone
and you are wonderful
it's hard to move on
yet, I'm better near to you

IM BETTER NEEDING YOU.

these are the lyrics to Near to You by A Fine Frenzy but i changed several of them to fit my own circumstances and to describe the active pursuit of the Lord in my life.
