lyrics

You got me down
So broken and destitute
You called me out
I was stuck either way
Told the truth
And now I know for certain that
The way I feel
You don't feel the same way

I guess I liked having a little shred of hope
The thought was nice
Unlikely it may be
Now I think if I walked life in different shoes
You'd be the one to fall in love with me

If there's a way please tell me
'Cause I'm trying to see

I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you don't leave me lonely
I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you let's leave this all behind

So now to see you showing off your new found self
All the while I grow ever insecure
It hurts me deep
But why should I feel anything but apathy
Your intentions were pure

And I guess I like how we pretend that I don't care
But you must know
I hide it terribly
Now I think if I walked life in different shoes
You'd be the one to fall in love with me

If there's a way please tell me
'Cause I'm trying to see

I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you don't leave me lonely
I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you let's leave this all behind

You took my best shot
Took it and you threw it away

I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you don't leave me lonely
I can't wait for a sign
You'll always be the one the only
I'm begging you don't leave me lonely
You'll always be the one the only
But now I've gotta get you off my mind
