I smiled and said "Okay."

I smiled and said "Okay."

You came up to me a party,
And I got the nervous feeling in my legs.
You asked me how I was,
I smiled and said "Okay."

Though deep down in my heart,
I ached for the touch of your lips.
I wanted you to hold me,
I wanted your kiss.

I needed you to tell me you loved me,
Just like back then...
I wanted you to take my hand...
But I just had to pretend.

Pretend that I was over you,
Pretend I didn't need you there.
Pretend I moved on,
Pretend that I didn't care.

One year since I saw your smile,
One year since I heard your voice.
One year since my life was normal,
And long ago you had made your choice.

She was your answer,
She was your light.
She was the one you needed,
For her, you would fight.

I was once in that place,
I was once your everything.
I slowly let you slip away,
To pretend that you were just a "fling."

I tried to tell you that I needed you,
And you told me to run away.
You told me that I'd find someone else,
You told me not to stay...
