"Stepping Stone... that is my job"

This song was once gifted to me, and now, I find myself on the other end of this song...

Near to You by Fine Frenzy

She and I had something beautiful
But so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
Loved her so but I let her go
Cause I knew she'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, yeah
Near to you,
I am healing But it is taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah, I'm better near to you
Well, you and I,
it's something different
And I'm enjoying it cautiously
I'm battle scarred,
I am working oh so hard
To get back to who I used to be
She's disappearing Fading steadily
When I'm so close to being yours
Won't you stay with me please?
Cause near to you,
I am healing But it is taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yet I'm better near to you
Yeah, 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
Though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Near to you,
I am healing But it's taking so long
Cause though she's gone and you are wonderful
It's hard to move on
Yeah, I'm better near to you
Yeah, I'm better near to you
