Haddie Jane - in the other room

Oh I should've said something
When I had the chance
Put on my big boy shoes
With my scaredy pants
I never thought the one that
Got away could come back again
Oh I swear to God I thought of
You in every frame of time
A picture perfect memory
Of the girl I left behind
Oh who would've thought you'd
End up with my best friend

And I thought it'd be easy
To let go of you like a balloon, ooh
Watch you float away and
Land right on the moon, ooh
See if you were far away
I'd be over you by noon, ooh
But how could I forget you
When you're in the other room

You were supposed to be
Easy to forget
This isn't how it works
You're not supposed to come back yet
I'm the hopeless romantic
So I should make the calls
This isn't just, isn't right, isn't fair
Why watch my dreams when
You're right over there
But I never sleep when I
hear you through the walls

And you should never
Hand a child a balloon, ooh
If you gave me some space
In the days like October or June, ooh
See if you were far away
I might have a change of tune, ooh
But how could I forget you
When you're in the other room

And I'll steal some glances
I won't make advances at you
Instead I'll pretend that you're
Stealing glances, too
And if one day I summon the
Courage I could never find
I'll knock on his door
Grab your hand and lead you to mine

But I'm such a coward
I won't be knocking soon
Yes I'm such a coward
I'll clap when you're bride and groom
Oh no
I'll regret all the times
I let go of my precious balloon
And I'll always love you
In the other room
Yes I'll always love you
In the other room
