Prompt / Lyrics
[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
