lyrics

This is over, before I even get the chance to step my foot in and ask for a dance. I won’t get the chance, I’ll be passed up and overlooked like so many times before I get to hold open your door. Though you still want more. And I told myself, “I’m too grown up for this, too mature for this.” But see, I don’t know. Yeah it’s happening, I’m sucked into this. So fed up with this. It’s what you don’t know. And as I sit here, I ponder up the possibilities I see, you mean too much for me to impede. It’s so frustrating, ‘cause of how little in life you just see and know, and it shows by the way my confidence glows. But I’m the nice guy who loses all the time. I’m the nice guy who’s losing this time. And it’s better to keep it that way. Only better to just speculate.
