Would you blame me
If I forgot your face
When he holds me.

Or would you look into the mirror
And realize that all along
You’ve been trying to forget mine.

Because you turned away
When I wanted to love you
And I won’t be there when you look back.

And not so long ago
You’d walk by without a second glance
So don’t tell me now you did.

Because I can see the difference
Between his smile and yours
Whenever you look at me.

Because I can tell
That when I’m not around
You don’t even know.

And when I’m gone for awhile
He asks me if I’m ok
And makes sure I get better.

He wants me to hold his hand
When you kept yours in your pockets
Whenever we walked together.

I’m the one he’ll walk towards
When I’m standing outside alone
When all you did was walk away.

And it somehow hurts to admit this
When I look into his eyes
I don’t see yours anymore…

Because you turned away
When I wanted to love you
And I won’t be there when you look back.
