There's a boy that I know
Just out of reach
Close enough to hear
But not close enough to see
He entered my life
And entered my heart
With his charm and his mind
He left his mark
Maybe it was his smile
Maybe it was his wit
Maybe it was the thought
Of a hypothetical kiss
It could have been his laugh
Or his endless ocean eyes
It could have been his
Relentless asking of "why"
But somewhere along the way
My heart grew a little bigger
My eyes opened a little wider
And my vision grew a little clearer
I want something that so
Clearly isn't mine
They say have faith
And the rest will happen in time
But I know
and he knows too
That there isn't ever gonna be
a "me and you"
If there was a choice
That he would have to make
His choice would be easy
Because I'd leave for his sake
Not that he would have had
Trouble choosing anyway
The problem with being
An outsider looking in
Is there's every way to lose
And no way to win
I want something
that I will never have
Though I knew all along
It still hurts just as bad
The problem with life
Is the pain comes in waves
While some people leave
Some people stay
I want you to stay...
