The Other Man

Was it wrong of me to think of him?
When I was already betrothed to another
Was it wrong of me to yearn and wish
That he and I could be together

I laid beside with whom I was promised
But my thoughts were only filled of him
He was the man whose name I whisper
And whom my life I'd give for on a whim

How could destiny be so cruel
To deprive me of such bliss
And robbed me of such privilege
Of him being mine and me being his

I knew what I felt for him was wrong
And yet my heart shouts for Dan
He was the person who I loved
And sadly he's the other man
