Lyric

Text me where the view is nice

If I don’t answer, you’ll roll the dice

Slip into someone’s open arms

Like it’s nothing, no alarms

Still trapped inside my fantasies

Thinking you’d call me your special lady

“Don’t treat me like a kid,” I say

But I’m the one lost anyway

If I walk you all the way home

You walk off to someone else’s door

And oh, I hate how that feels

But I’m still floating, chasing dreams that aren’t real

“Say thanks,” you whisper so sweet

Let me hold you, make you complete

End your pain, rewrite your fate

I got serious, a little too late

But tears fall down from who I’ve become

Tell me, are we breaking up? — there was never an “us”

So my aunt asks if I’m alright

Yeah, we weren’t even dating, right?

Strange relationship we have here

All these “dates,” year after year

Hope betrayed, numbed inside

Still I stay, still I try

If I walk you all the way home

You smile, say “goodnight,” then you’re gone

Feels different under this kind moonlight

Maybe this time… maybe tonight…

Morning comes, your message says

“I’m getting married soon, I’m blessed

Thank you for everything you’ve done”

My screen goes blurry — I try not to run

When I finish crying out loud

I’ll wish your happiness somehow

That’s the best I can allow

For the one I never asked out

Not once…

Not once in all these years

Goodbye without a “yes”

Goodbye without a chance
