lyrics

She looked in my eyes
Saw right thru my disguise
She knew I could be with her happily
But something unsaid went through both of our heads
And now we both know this is not meant to be

She took a deep breath and sighed
I fixed my collar and tie
The timing’s just not right

She said that someday
She’d like to move away
Where she can’t say, no not definitely
And so I’ll convey that I know I can’t stay
And now we both know this is not meant to be
Now we both know this is not meant to be

We speak no words, but still I hear her out
The cards won’t fall for her and me
I tell her don’t be afraid to let him take you out
I won’t take it so badly

It’s time that I go
Hate to leave her alone
I hope she is happy with him over me
It may sound cliché, but there might come a day
For now we both know this is not meant to be
Now we both know this is not meant to be
