You’re so close,

But I can’t even touch.

Asking for a dance,

Feels like too much.

I’d never have a chance,

With a girl like you…

I don’t know even know why you look at me,

The way you do.



Even in my dreams,

This never works out,

I scream out your name,

But you don’t turn around.



If only there was something I could do,

That would let me know I could be with you.



You know there isn’t much that I can say,

Words don’t feel real anyway.

My heart is pounding out your name.

But being without you is a shame.



I know you never saw me,

As someone you could love.

But you never gave me a chance,

And that’s what hurts the most.

So now I’m saying goodbye,

To something I never had.

And even though my heart’s with you,

I know I’ll get another chance.



I knew you never had this in you,

You could never hold this down from the start.

Now I’m picking up my story,

And turning to another part,

Another part that doesn’t have you,

Hurting me anymore.



And now that hurt is gone,

I can let someone new,

Into my life,

Into my heart,

And now I can start forgetting you.
