Do  you think of her
 When you're with  me
 Repeat the memories  you made together
 Whose face  do you see?
 Do you wish  I was a bit more like  her?
 Am I too loud?  I play the clown, to cover up
 All these doubts
Perfect  heart, she’s flawless
She's  the other woman
Shining  in her splendour, you  were lost
 Now she's gone
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 I watch you cry
 But you don't see that I'm the one  by your side
 Cause she's gone
 In her shadow  is it me you see?
 Cause all that's left  is you and I
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 She left behind
 I found a photograph,  Behind the TV
 You look so happy,  are you missing the way  it used be?
 And I have changed  this room around more often lately
 It's clear that we  and these four walls
 Still know it’s hers  and yours
Perfect  heart, she’s flawless
She's  the other woman
Shining  in her splendour, you  were lost
 Now she's gone
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 I watch you cry
 But you don't see that I'm the one  by your side
 Cause she's gone
 In her shadow  is it me you see?
 Cause all that's left  is you and I
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 She left behind
Are  we liars
 In denial
 Are we smoke without the fire
 Tell me please, is this worth  it?
 I deserve it
 Cause she's  gone
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 I watch you cry
 But you don't see that I'm the one  by your side
 Cause she's gone
 In her shadow  is it me you see?
 Cause all that's left  is you and I
 And I'm picking  up the pieces
 She left behind
