[Verse 1]
We were standing by the wall, just a moment in time
Your laughter paintin' colors, a melody so divine
Eyes lit like fire, smile brighter than the day
In that crowded room, I felt my heart sway
[Pre-Chorus]
And I thought, maybe, just maybe, this could be it
A spark in the dark, a flame, I couldn’t resist
But then he came with that easy grin
And suddenly, I realized I can't win
[Chorus]
You had the light, I had the heart
But he’s the one tearing us apart
He’s got the charm, he's got the smile
While I was dreaming all the while
Oh, if only I could have had your love
But he took what I was dreaming of
He’s my brother, my kin, my pride
Yet I wish that you were mine
[Verse 2]
They say love’s a game, easy to lose
Chasing after shadows, singing the blues
He’s the one who knows how to make your heart race
While I just watched, lost in your grace
[Pre-Chorus]
I see him walk away with what I dreamt of
A fleeting glimpse of your tender love
I’d have been your man, the one you’d adore
But that smile he wears, I can’t ignore
[Chorus]
You had the light, I had the heart
But he’s the one tearing us apart
He’s got the charm, he's got the smile
While I was dreaming all the while
Oh, if only I could have had your love
But he took what I was dreaming of
He’s my brother, my kin, my pride
Yet I wish that you were mine
[Bridge]
Maybe someday, you’ll see through the disguise
See the boy who’s been hiding behind his pride
I love you more than words can scream
Living in the shadows of this silent dream
[Outro]
You got his charm, but you could have had my heart
Wish I knew how to make a brand-new start
For now I’ll watch from afar and pray
That someday, maybe, you’ll come my way
