I waited for you...
While the clock ticks
It's steady, lifeless beat
Drumming in my head

I waited for you...
Maybe you forgot
Perhaps you've been hurt
Which would've been worse?

My heart skipped a beat when I finally saw you
The man of my dreams,  then and now
I was just about to tell the girl beside me that you’re my life
But she spoke first, “I’m his wife.”

I pretended to be deaf when I heard you.
I pretended to be blind when I saw the two of you.
I tried not to get hurt when I was supposed to.
Seeing you both, I hoped that I was the one with you.

I wish I'd never met you
I wish you’ve never been so sweet
I wish you weren’t too special
I wish you never became my world.
I wish I didn’t love you.
The problem is I do.
