"You Don't Need Me Anymore" lyrics

Before I leave, please hear me out
There's something I'd like to speak about
I know the night is almost gone
But don't worry I won't take too long

New York's been calling out your name
And by midnight you'll be on that plane
And 'tho I still want you by my side
I think it's time to realize

That you don't need me anymore
At least not like you did before
Although I never want this love to end
I understand you're better on your own

So let's just say goodbye for now
Who knows one day our time may come around
And we'll walk by central seventh south
While you'll tell me what your new life's all about

And I'm sure that in no time you'll find
New friends, a home, a better guy

'Cause you don't need me anymore
At least not like you did before
Although I never want this love to end
I understand you're better on your own

'Cause you don't need me anymore
At least not like you did before
Although I never wanted us to end
I understand it all

'Cause you don't need me anymore
So please hold me in your arms once more
'Cause I need this memory till we meet again
To remind me when you're gone
That you don't need me anymore
