Sidelines

Do you notice me, noticing you

From across the room, you’re all I see

I can’t get too close, cause you’re so far

Haven’t said it yet, but you’re my superstar

Trying to hold on,

Feel myself slipping,

I wanna tell you, but

I’m

Just drifting through the ocean

Holding back my emotions

Hoping that,

You can see,

I don’t agree,

With everything,

Cause,

I’m

Just sitting on the sidelines

With you through the bad times

Wishing that,

You and I,

Stars aligned,

Praying that,

You’ll be mine

Meeting at our spot, almost eleven

That tear in your eye, holding a lot

Looking for the words, choosing carefully

So much to say but, holding back temporarily

Trying to hold on,

Feel myself slipping,

I wanna tell you, but

I’m

Just drifting through the ocean

Holding back my emotions

Hoping that,

You can see,

I don’t agree,

With everything,

Cause,

I’m

Just sitting on the sidelines

With you through the bad times

Wishing that,

You and I,

Stars aligned,

Praying that,

You’ll be mine

Hidden beneath the shadows, there’s a strength you don’t see

A quiet resilience underneath your vulnerability

The night may seem endless,

But dawn will break through

I’m

Just drifting through the ocean

Holding back my emotions

Hoping that,

You can see,

I don’t agree,

With everything,

Cause,

I’m

Just sitting on the sidelines

With you through the bad times

Wishing that,

You and I,

Stars aligned,

Praying that,

You’ll be mine
