Tink

It's the same old song
we've all heard before,
but I'm pretty sure
mine hurts even more.

If everyone's been there,
if everyone knows,
if everyone understands,
just how this thing goes,

if everyone's felt
this thing I feel now,
then why didn't someone tell me,
warn me somehow?

Someone should've told me
that I'd find THE guy
and that I'd want him,
but I'd be too shy.
Someone should've told me
HE'd catch my eye,
but then in the end,
all I'd do is cry.

Someone should've warned me
that HE was just around the bend
and that many hours
to each other we'd lend.
Someone should've warned me
about the years it'd take to mend
my lonely, broken heart after he said,
"I like you... as a friend."
