She's who my mom had in mind for me That unforgettable kind all the millions of eyes could see First smile in a while that everyone believed But permanently inside her head remained a high we couldn't keep Go on and tell all my friends I failed again I couldn't build her a world worth living in If I could kiss her 'till it made more sense God knows I'd do it all again Wish I could hold her 'till were more than friends I wanna die a happy man I'm sorry for my eyes But it's hard to fight when the last one she'll ever love isn't me She hopes I'm holding someone new today Call me crazy, selfish, but I just can't do the same So in love with her sister's kids, but do they know my name? I got too used to me believing I'd be part of their lives someday Go on and tell all my friends I failed again I couldn't build her a world worth living in If I could kiss her 'till it made more sense God knows I'd do it all again Wish I could hold her 'till were more than friends I wanna die a happy man I'm sorry for my eyes But it's hard to fight when the last one she'll ever love isn't me Isn't me
