Yearning

Is this how I’m supposed to carry on,
Loving you, but in fear that I might let on?
Or in vain, hoping that you'll lead me on?
Is this how I’m supposed to go on,
Now that you finally decided to move on?

For years I waited,
Patiently, I just dated, killing time
so you could notice
that you and I, were always meant to be one.
Now it seems you’ve found “your one”
So I get to find out what happens,
When I a person’s lifelong dream is crushed, and gone.

Is this how I’m supposed to carry on,
Loving you, but in fear that I might let on?
Or in vain, hoping that you'll lead me on?
Is this how I’m supposed to go on,
Now that you finally decided to move on?

You weren’t my best friend,
But you were there whenever I needed one.
All you had to do was talk to make me embrace the sun.
You smiled, and all my other deals would just come undone,
Leaving me at your doorstep hoping for
One little kiss
One little hug
One long overdue realization of mutual love
(instead of the usual indifferent shrug.)

But it seems my hope was futile
All these years of wasted love
And all these mountains of misused hope
Just to learn, that I won’t be the one…
to hold your hand through your long run,
to kiss your lips and change your frown.
I won’t be the one…
The one who’ll spend a lifetime on your arm!

Is this how I’m supposed to carry on,
Loving you, but in fear that I might let on?
Or in vain, hoping that you'll lead me on?
Is this how I’m supposed to go on,
Now that you finally decided to move on?

No, it’s time I finally see;
What the whole world has been dying
and fruitlessly trying to tell me.
You and I were never meant to be.
I know, I know…
It’s you, not me.
I know, I know.
It’s you, and not me.
