We've hit that mark We've been apart The same amount of time that you were mine Every day I found a different way of dealin' with the pain 'Til it went away I used to think that we'd get back together You left me there to sort it out on my own It's been 500 days without you 500 nights to think it through I wrestled with the bitterness But I found it was enough That we had 500 days to be in love Those words you said They ran through my head, down into my heart Tore me apart But they rang true, molded me into Who I am, a better man I used to think there'd be no getting over You stole my heart, but you don't need it anymore It's been 500 days without you 500 nights to think it through I wrestled with the bitterness But I found it was enough That we had 500 days to be in love I wouldn't change a thing What we had was worth the pain I wouldn't change a thing If I did then part of me would be missing Part of me would be missing 500 days without you 500 nights to think it through I wrestled with the bitterness But I found it was enough That we had 500 days to be in love I wrestled with the bitterness But I found it was enough That we had 500 days To be in love
