The Best Thing I Never Had
by whitdrew22
Yeah, I was the girl of his dreams,
But you’re the man of mine,
And I thought love was bullshit,
But now I think we’d turn out fine.
There are tears on my keyboard,
And that’s how I know it’s bad,
But with you my heart beats stronger,
And you’re the best thing I’ve never had.
And I don’t like your new girl
Because she isn’t me,
But I broke your heart first,
Yeah, that much I can see.
And your words they just kill me,
I’m bent out of shape this time,
You are the greatest guy,
And I just want to call you mine.
I hate that you like her,
And I hope that she’s perfect,
And I hope that she loves you
Because goddamn you’re worth it.
My heart feels heavy,
And it’s my own damn problem,
And I’m trying to cope but,
I just can’t seem to solve them.
I guess that I should be honest,
But it’s a thing I just can’t bear
I can’t ruin your joy
My God, I would not dare.
But it’s killing me softly,
So painfully slow,
I hope that she’ll love you,
I just need to know.
I’m being so selfish,
Because my heart went crazy.
I didn’t love these boys,
My vision’s just hazy.
It’s my own damn fault, and,
I hope you know I know
That I’m wrecked on the insides
Because of how this could go.
And I hate that you like her,
But I hope that you’re happy,
And I hope that she loves you
But I'm sad that it's not me.
And these boys meant nothing,
And I need you to know,
That part of me is still hoping
Because I know how this can go.
But I can’t be selfish,
And I can’t get mad
But to tell you the truth,
You’re the best thing I never had.
