my heartbeat stops as i hold my breath
did not know how to make it end
try to look chill, just smile and pretend
ignore the flames and fire raging from inside
stare a little longer
hurt a little more
i wish our hands would hold
just as yours and his do
oh love, why can't you see
all the moments and smiles
and love and hugs just fade
whenever you're with him, i wish you could see
and i wish my lips met yours the way his do
and you stared at me
filled with passion and love
oh dear, i wish i could be that boy
but that's the way it's supposed to be
god knows i've tried to get you off my mind
for god's sake i've tried but your hazel eyes
always find a way back
and i wish you could see
i could love and hold you
and wipe your tears whenever you need it
oh baby can't you see, i could be him
but i'll just sit and hope that this song makes sense
and that voice doesn't break while singing
maybe one day you'll see
we were meant to be.
