I see the way her face shines in your eyes
The feelings you try to hide and disguise
Words you sweeten, only for her
The care you've saved for when she may hurt
After your fill of her, do you think of me?
Do you feel bad because she's all you can see?
You try to pretend that she's not there
On your mind, in your heart? Yes, I can tell
It's not alright, love, but I'll be okay
Hoping the thought of you won't sting someday
Goodbye for now, so my heart may mend
The tear formed by you and your friend
