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
