i never saw my name in lights
until i looked into your eyes
your marquee shown it's love so bright
it made me faint to realize
i know you say you'll stay forever
but i don't have the love you hope to find
i waited weeks, stayed by your side
bettered my best, i tried my try
but came up shallow, left low and dry
i never felt that burn inside
i know you say you'll stay forever
but i don't have the love you hope to find
i wish i felt the way you do to feel a love so true
now when we meet it's all hellos
we say we're friends, but we both know
i bruised your pride, i crushed your soul
i wished you well, then turned to go
i know you swear you'll stay forever
i don't have the love you hope to find
i wish i felt the way you do to feel a love so true
