With fluttering heart and stumbling feet

I went to seek you out

Finally finding the courage to speak

The love I felt, out loud

But to my grief you weren’t alone

And a light shone in your eyes

Her hand fit perfectly in your own

Where I’d dreamed of placing mine

I wish “right person wrong time” were true

And I could wait for your heart to heal

But I know I’ll never be right for you

And our love was never real

Now idly by I’ll sit and wait

As you both grow older together

It seems that me and old heartbreak

Are destined to always be tethered

In another life within my dreams

Our souls would intertwine

Our hearts would beat as though in sync

If only you were mine
