Wondering

by InMyWorld   Jun 13, 2005


I see it in your eyes
that look of longing
every time you're with me
i know what you're thinking
you wish i was her
and i can't bear it

do you know how it feels?

now I'm wondering, if
it was her that had felt the same
would she be in your arms
right now
if it was both
who would you have picked
cause now I'm thinking
you got the wrong girl

when i talk to you, you're disconnected
i lend a helping hand and you brag about hers
if she'd felt the same and i hadn't
would you have waited for me
or gone with her

i try and be what you want
to be perfect in your eyes
but every time i look at you
i see her reflection
staring back at me

i feel like a substitute
and that when she comes running to you
I'll be gone without a trace
without a tear in your eye
from all the guilt you should be feeling
and all the lies you've told to me
