Lost a lot back in March

Said I'd come alive by August

Two months to go, still nobody's sure

Every evening was a risk

I'd try to take for a kiss

I knew was never gonna come

Tried to call from Union Square

Didn't go through, got in my head

Does he miss me when I'm gone?

Said I'd fly home and say I love you

I got home and couldn't stand you

Isn't that some kind of curse?

Or is it a

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief, oh

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief

Maybe all you were was comfort

Maybe all I am is lonely

Maybe I can live without

It's a good thing that I lost you

Think I'm happier without you

Think I'm happy about that

I think it's a

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief, oh

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief

But I hate that it took courage to build up our last goodbye

And I hate that you don't know

that you're the reason that I write

Least I can hold you softer now we've settled on how close

I can't hold you longer now that friendship's what I chose

It's a

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief, oh

Sweet, sweet, sweet relief

Sweet relief

Sweet relief

Sweet relief

Sweet relief
