I Thought My Feelings For You Had Vanished
But They've Come Back To Haunt Me Just Like A Ghost


Although We Only Spoke For A Couple Of Weeks
Those Were Still The Weeks I Smiled The Most


Yeah, I Know You Were Never Really Into Me
Your Feelings Revolved Around Her


The Prettier One, The Friendlier One
The One Any Normal Boy Would Prefer


& Yet It Still Stunned Me
When You Chose Her Over Me


For A Second The World Just Went Blank & I Couldn't See A Thing
Because My Eyes Were Filled With Tears,


My Pillow Was Soaking Wet, My Smile Had Faded Away,
And I Simply Cried All Day On My Bed


My Body Was Shaking With My Sobs
& My Voice Seemed To Disappear


The Only Thing That Would Have Been Able To Make Me Stop
Would Be Hearing Your Sweet Words In My Ear


For A While I Told Myself It Was All A Dream
Or That Maybe You'd Change Your Mind


Or Maybe You Were Just Kidding
Maybe You Needed Some Time


But My Heart Knew I Was Fooling Myself
I Was Waiting For Someone That Would Never Show Up


Waiting & Waiting & Waiting
Until Eventually I'd Give Up


It's Been Months Since You've Broken My Heart
& Yet I Find That I'm Still Here Waiting


A Couple Of Weeks Ago I Saw A Picture Of This Gorgeous Girl
It Turns Out Thats The New Girl Your Dating


They Say Things Get Better Over Time
I Find That Its Becoming Worse


Because Seeing You Everyday In The Hallway
Its Really All Just A Curse


What Have I Done To Anyone?
Must I Really Endure All This Pain?



All I Want Is To Be In Your Arms
Even If Only For A Day


I'd Risk It All To Have You
You Don't Even Understand


That Girl You Were Speaking To Over The Summer
That Girl Never Really Came Back


Her Smile Isn't Even Real Anymore
Its Just An Illusion For All Her Friends


On The Inside She's Still Crying Her Eyes Out


Because Her Smile Is Simply Pretend
