The Third

I'm nothing but an extra person,
Listen to nothing but George Harrison,
You two are over there,
Making love,
I'm over here,
With no love;

Days are lonely just looking at you two,
Think I'm selfish, but I don't mean it like that,
Don't get me wrong I'm happy for,
If fact, I'm so happy, it warms my heart,
I guess sometimes though, that's not always a great start;

I fear of bothering the both of you,
I know you wish it was something just you two,
You promise not to be those people,
But you guys can't help it you stuck on the love level;

It's okay, I won't be near when you two are in your moments,
I'll think of other things that are important,
Like how I knew this would happen,
The concept of an extra overlapping,
Sometimes I just have to go;

Though, the idea of me never finding love like you guys did makes me feel like crying,
I play my guitar with a lonely song dying,
It gently weeps,
And so do I,
Thoughts of aloneness cut deep,
Though I know you feel bad and don't want me to feel that way,
I promise to feel better the next day,
It just...I can't stay the third wheel forever;
