On the 3rd of December
Your eyes glinted Amber
And I said it looked better
On you than it did me
But I watched them as she

Walked by
Gave you a ring
A sight for
Sore eyes
Apple of her eye, the quick tongued cupid
She gave you the ring
And you gladly took it

Watch as you accept,
A free spirit, you said
"No one has asked you to marry them before"
You watched as I tore
Maybe I'm just jealous
Maybe I'm too attached
But I watched you as she

Walked by
What a sight for
Sore eyes
She made you so
Mesmerised
While I try

Maybe I'm too attached
Your heart's a canvas,
Not too quick-latched
You accepted her offer,
Now my ring's getting colder

I can share you with her,
I can't ever really hate her
While she's got you Mesmerised
While I try

I wish your eyes weren't Amber.
