Lyrics

You tilt my chin up, our lips meet
But I open my eyes because the dream was much more sweet
I look at you but all I see is him
The chances of you living up to him are slim

You ask "What's the matter?" and I just sigh
You know what I'm thinking but I still feel the need to lie
I blink my eyes coyly to make you forget you'd asked
And I wonder how long this trick of mine will last

When I'm thinking of you I'm thinking of him all the time
Wishing that I could have made him mine
And it's something that when I think of him I cry
But it's something that I let him walk away
Goodbye

I would have done things differently now
I would've made him stay with me somehow
And it's my fault I'm unhappy
But it's all behind me now
I'm just picking up the pieces
And smiling over my frown

You look at me and all you see is me
You brush a stray piece of hair off my cheek
You touch your lips to mine but that's all you get
I'm in a place where all I feel's regret
And it's not fair that you're here
In the middle of my mess
It's not fair that you care
When I, I couldn't care less

It's my fault I'm unhappy
But it's all behind me now
I'm just picking up the pieces
And smiling over my frown
