Every day I watch you there
Sitting on the same lawn chair
Surrounded by all your friends
Talking about odds and ends
But every day I watch your crew
I think more and more that I can never have you
For all the days were nothing but common times
That your dark brown eyes saw past all my signs
And most often, I am left alone
In places where no light is shown
I’d kill to make this love go away
But I have no control and it is here to stay
You’ve been my life for longer than you could know
And all this time I’ve been going with the flow
But I just can’t take it anymore
My giving to you have made me poor
For you have never at all returned
A single thing that for which my heart has burned
And that is the worst price of all
Knowing that I am destined to fall
And the thing that hurts most to see
Is that though I am nothing to you, you are everything to me
So knowing you cant here my words or laughter
I hope you find what you’re really after
If not me, I hope that you really do
Find someone who wants what I want; that’s you
And since I can’t take this anymore
The only thing to do is just to shut the door
I will block everything there is now
For my heart to break I will no longer allow
And I know that if I do this without regret
My pained heart may yet forget
Maybe when you look back on me
You’ll see all the things that you were too blind to see
Maybe then you’ll finally know
All the things I tried to show
But I can only hope, every day
I can only hope in every way…
