She caught your eye with just a glance
While I racked my brain to chase you
To come up empty every time
Yet all it took her was a "Hi"
I used to think was I not enough
What did I lack?
But I know the answer now
It’s simple yet it’s cruel
Im not her
I’m sure I’ll never be her
10 years of chasing
A delusion I dreamt up myself
One you didn’t share
Because I’ll never be the one
I know the answer now
It’s simple yet it’s cruel
It’s realizing im not her
It’s me you cannot love
Your eyes follow her the minute she enters the room
I practiced a thousand times to have you turn my way
Why does your heart come so easy to her?
When it’s like grabbing at air to hold in my hands?
But I know the answer now
It’s simple yet it’s cruel
I’m not her
I’m me and that’s ok but that’s means I won’t have you
Maybe I’ll tell you one day
But seeing her dress and that look you have on your face
It’s better you didn’t know
These feelings they’ll stay with me
Where they have been and always will be
I know the answer now
It’s simple yet it’s cruel
I’m not her
No, I’ll never be her
