You see my half-hearted grin
No thought passes in your mind
To ask me how I’ve been.

Each day we speak less and less
You love her more and more
Each day I live less and less
Losing focus on what I’m fighting for.

Each time I’ve reached out my hand
I know that I am too late
She is already holding yours
I was no reason for you to wait.

Each day I have this desire to know you
To hold you and forget the past
Always wanting what I cannot have
I’ve learned that chances never do last.

Each time I see you with that smile
That you’ve been wearing lately
I know that it is from somebody else
And honestly, that drives me crazy.

Each memory I have of you
How much they mean to me is hard to tell
But I am not the one you chose
And for that, I wish you well.

Each time we run into each other
You see my half-hearted grin
No thought passes in your mind
To ask me how I’ve been.

Each day we speak less and less
You love her more and more
Each day I live less and less
Losing focus on what I’m fighting for.

Each time I’ve reached out my hand
I know that I am too late
She is already holding yours
I was no reason for you to wait.

Each day I have this desire to know you
To hold you and forget the past
Always wanting what I cannot have
I’ve learned that chances never do last.

Each time I see you with that smile
That you’ve been wearing lately
I know that it is from somebody else
And honestly, that drives me crazy.

Each memory I have of you
How much they mean to me is hard to tell
But I am not the one you chose
And for that, I wish you well.
