ethe·re·al

I can't come out and say it
cuz i know you wouldn't hear it anyway
my love falls upon deaf ears
blind eyes, beautiful blind eyes
and a heart stolen by women
more deserving of your love

if every woman saw what i saw in you
i wouldn't have a chance in hell
if every woman loved you like i do
would all of their hearts swell?
if every woman knew what i knew
they'd line up to be your wife
but if every woman cared the way i do
you'd never have been in my life

I can’t come out and say it
Cuz I know you wouldn’t hear it anyway
Your love fell upon deaf ears
Blind eyes, selfish blind eyes
Now your heart has been stolen by a man
More deserving of your love

He saw you for who you are
And now I finally see
Was I right when I let you go
Was this destiny?
Now it’s all too clear
What I shot to hell,
I ruined what we could have had
You know all too well
If I said now I can’t get you out of my head
Would it change how you feel?
Or would you say it’s all in the past now,
You fucked up just deal.

I keep praying for a miracle
Something that will bring you to me
We always used to say that deep down
It felt meant to be.
Silly dreams and selfish desires
Never seem to die
Don’t take this too seriously
It just might be a subconscious lie
Maybe something else will come along
Something I didn’t fore see
If it doesn’t please just stop
So I can tell myself you were a dream.
