He takes your hand
I die a little
I watch your eyes
And I'm in riddles
Why can't you look at me like that?
When you walk by
I try to say it
But then I freeze
And never do it
My tongue gets tight
The words get trapped
I hear the beat of my heart get louder
Whenever I'm near you

But I see you with him
Slow dancing
Tearing me apart
'Cause you don't see
Whenever you kiss him
I'm breaking
Oh, how I wish, that was me

He looks at you
The way that I would
Does all the things
I know I could
If only time could just turn back
'Cause I got three little words
That I've always been dying to tell you

But, I see you with him
Slow dancing
Tearing me apart
'Cause you don't see
Whenever you kiss him
I'm breaking
Oh, how I wish, that was me

With my hands on your waist
While we dance in the moonlight
I wish it was me
That you'll call later on
'Cause you wanna say good night

But, I see you with him
Slow dancing
Tearing me apart
'Cause you don't see
Whenever you kiss him
I'm breaking
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish
Oh, how I wish
That was me, me, me
Oh, how I wish, that was me
