These empty seats around me
I’m trying to see if you would sit beside me
Oh come on baby, I’m your paramour
Please do not make me love you even more

I see you walk towards her
It should have been me but I am with my lover
But baby come on, I’m your paramour
Please stop being the reason to fall for

I guess this is how one-sided love is
It gives you this hope that doesn't exist
It's like seeing you through a telescope
You’re so far but feels near like home

I see you from a distance
I wanted to get near you but there is no chance
Oh come on baby, I’m your paramour
Please don't show me you are closing the door

I see your face as I sit
I've been looking at you but that's hard to admit
Baby come on, I am your paramour
Please don’t feel that you are being ignored

I guess this is how a secret love is
I can only cuddle you in my dreams
It's like seeing you through a telescope
You’re so far but feels near like home

Being with you is enough
Sharing our own stories and laughs
You truly are the only one I want and admire
Why do we have to keep this to ourselves?
We talk casually but I keep losing myself
Despite this circumstance, this will never get me tired

This love we have is like a magic trick
It's amazing but there's one cheating and one being cheated on
We know this is really becoming sick
Because both of us can’t be together and we need to move on

I guess this is how the love that you keep to yourself is
It makes you crazy, you feel the need to get numb
Forgive me for thinking you and I underneath bedsheets
We've been so in love we don't know what we've become
