It's always bitter and cold outside
Without the warmth of someone caring
And maybe that's why I turned to him
Or possibly to keep my heart from tearing
Because I'm so much more free
Without you by my side
And even under your scornful eyes
I no longer want to run and hide
But forbidden fruit doesn't taste as sweet
When there's no one there to care
And it's possible my love has faded away
Into the nights that you were never there
And I hope my truth filled laughter
Rings mockingly in your ears
For even as the smiles fade
There no longer comes painful tears
Your plan to ruin me has failed
But I won't carry out mine
Because even though I know I could
You're just not worth it this time
