[Verse]
Saw you in the park by the fountain light
Your smile so close it feels just right
But you say friends that's all we'll be
Yet here you are breaking me endlessly
[Chorus]
It's hard when I'm too close to stay away
Watching you fall for him day by day
Your laughter echoes through the haze
While I stand alone in a love-struck daze
[Verse 2]
You laugh you talk like I'm not torn
Heart held together by threads worn
Another man takes your hand in grace
I hide the tears feel out of place
[Chorus]
It's hard when I'm too close to stay away
Watching you fall for him day by day
Your laughter echoes through the haze
While I stand alone in a love-struck daze
[Bridge]
Every whispered secret tightens the chain
Stuck in this cycle of heart-wrenching pain
But I’d rather be near in agony bright
Than lose your glow your moonlight
[Chorus]
It's hard when I'm too close to stay away
Watching you fall for him day by day
Your laughter echoes through the haze
While I stand alone in a love-struck daze
