(1, 2, 3, and)
Only came to this party cause I heard you were invited
Put on my best outfit
And I did my hair how you used to like it
'Come On Eileen' is playing as you make your way over
You give me a hug and a smile
Say 'it's been such a while', but your hand is holding hers
You've been seeing each other for the better part of a year
She seems kind, and has eyes that could make the ocean cry
And her name is Evelyn
I knew all of this before I came
But I just wanted to see your face
We don't talk much for the rest of the night
You dance with her, and I watch from the sideline
No force of gravity, or proximity
Could make you notice me
You've got a person who'll love you more than anything
Standing across the room, watching you
She paints your life
But it's all black and white
You deserve someone to show you every hue
You've only known her for a year
But we've been friends since we were kids
There's things she'll never understand about you
The way I do
The way I could
If this weren't a one-sided love
Smell of cold night air and cigarette smoke
As I leave through the front door
Cause there's only so long I can bear to watch you
Distracted by another
Cause we never talk anymore
You send letters to her
And then ring me once every four months
We were best friends
Now we're more like lose threads
Just hanging on to whatever's left
So much misery, endless history
Why won't you notice me
You've got a person who'll love you more than anything
Standing across the room, watching you
She paints your life
But it's all black and white
You deserve someone to show you every hue
You've only known her for a year
But we've been friends since we were kids
There's things she'll never understand about you
The way I do
The way I could
And I know she brings you flowers everyday
But they're the ones that you hate
She doesn't know every song on your favourite mixtape
The way I do
The way I could
If this weren't a one-sided love
(Oh, oh oh)
If this weren't a one-sided love
(Oh, oh, oh)
So go take your CD's
And your faded blue jeans
And the three sugars you always have
Put in your coffee
And go give it to her
Every piece of your world
That you used to share with me
If our love's a dead end
Why can't we still be friends
I'm one call away
Just ring me and say
I'm sorry for leaving you behind
How could I have ever been so blind
You've got a person who'll love you more than anything
Standing across the room, watching you
She paints your life
But it's all black and white
You deserve someone to show you every hue
You've only known her for a year
But we've been friends since we were kids
She'll never understand you
The way I do
The way I could
And I know she brings you flowers everyday
But they're the ones that you hate
She doesn't know every song on your favourite mixtape
The way I do
The way I could
If this weren't a one-sided love
(The end)
