The Prints - Nevermine

To the one I loved before
The one that was nevermine
To the one I waited for
And the one I left behind
Could it be my memory is playing tricks on me?
What do I always have to dream about you for?
I don't need the fantasy of a life where you fall
You were always honest in regard to the future that you saw
And I would hope regardless, thinking of you standing behind my bedroom door
Blue velvet on my windowsill
Truth telling when I'm timid still
And thinking if I hadn't moved so fast, I could be making this thing real
But under my door, I see still
That your shadow wouldn't leave 'til
I can accept that your feelings are not in my control
I'm so stubborn my heart aches
I would rather learn the hard way
That you and me together only works in my head
Let alone the hallway
When I dream of you, that's a hard day
For when I awake, we part ways
For when I awake
To the one I loved before
The one that was nevermine
To the one I waited for
And the one I left behind
Could it be my memory is playing tricks on me?
How I'm living
How it was
How you couldn't be with me because
I hadn't grown enough
And I was just prone to love
Couldn't see us anyway but being lovers
Waiting for the day you'd maybe discover
That you were just so beloved
Then you'd believe in us
A love that's built on guilt would still fulfill me
Even when your looks could kill me
Trying to play the part
Try to keep me from a broken heart, you can't
Ever love me like I love you
I am prepared for that
You keep me aware of that
I'd rather you hate me
Rather you do anything to erase me
Rather than how it's been
Not even friends, you are indifferent I am just
Scared of that
Just want to know what I did wrong
To not be one you're counting on
Just want to know why I don't belong
To the one
To the one I loved before
The one that was nevermine
To the one I waited for
And the one I left behind
Could it be my memory is playing tricks on me?
