• You were in love. You admit it to me.
    I was in love. I'm too shy; that's me.

    You made your move. "This is so easy."
    I settled back. You were too busy.
    You got rejected... then were dejected.
    I tried to cheer you up; nothing happened.

    "Why does this always happen to me?
    Was it something I saw that I'm not supposed to see?
    Was it something I said that I wasn't supposed to say?
    Or was I just too stupid each and every day?

    "I love her, I do; I can't live without her
    So why does heaven frown on me and give me the cold shoulder?
    I'll battle fate, I'll get her back
    I'd get everything that right now I lack!

    "No one can make me to just let her go
    I'll go back to her and return her bitter 'no'
    I'll force her to respond with a sweet, caring 'yes'
    Happy she will be in my loving caress..."

    You continued to ramble, I remained quiet
    Since when was I so calm when inside it's a riot?
    Your lips still moved, your tears still spilled
    I felt like the Earth has lost its tilt.

    You felt a little better. You smiled at me.
    I returned a fake one; yup, that's me.
    You could really see the hurt in my eyes.
    You were an idiot. You believed my fake smile.

    You plotted some strategies to take on the girl
    I just responded with a nod or an 'err...'
    You laughed again. Genuine happiness...
    All because of the thought of her 'yes'

    While you go to the girl of your dreams
    I whisper, teary-eyed, "This is not what it seems."
    You presented the flower. I stared at it blankly,
    Thinking of the moments where once we were happy.

    The day we first met, the day we shared crayons
    The days we played... it felt like eons
    The day you first held my hand
    It still takes me to my own personal land

    The girl nodded. You whooped and cheered.
    I smiled warily when you looked at me.
    I asked "Why? Is something wrong?
    Why are you sad when you've waited for so long?"

    Not waiting for an answer, I ran away
    Hoping to remember, hoping to stay
    Tears and memories flowed out together
    Rain began to fall, pitter patter

    "I'm here, I'm here; why can't you see?
    Why can't you see what you're doing to me?
    Your laugh, your smile, your pout, your hair
    That girl won't love you; she wouldn't care.

    "She won't do anything for you
    She won't smile; say 'what’s up with you?'
    Lucky I'm in love with my best friend, alright
    But love is more preferable than jealousy or spite..."

    You were in love, you admit it to me
    I was in love. I'm too shy; that's me
    That day I told the rain how I loved thee
    Not knowing you were there behind the oak tree
