Slipped Feelings
I almost let something slip today
About the way I felt
It almost jumped right out my mouth
And changed the cards we’re dealt
I knew she had your beating heart
Right from that first day
And I also knew who wanted it
And the prices she would pay
It seemed so different way back then
From the way I see you now
You’re exactly as imagined
Only slightly different somehow
Do you even know how I feel?
Adoration lives in these eyes
But you turn your head and pass it over
Bit by bit my hope just dies
In all your effort scolding her
You forget to notice me
All my time, help gone wasted
You’ve pushed me to a back seat
Even if you knew how I felt
What would happen then?
Nothing, like always in my life
My stay here has come to end
So I sit silently, watching, waiting
But even if you could see
Nothing would ever come of it
It’s just not meant to be
