Better

I knew you could do better
Why didn't you listen?
I assumed you loved her
So I let it be
I figured if you were happy
I'd let it be.
I'm sorry she hurt you
I wish I could help heal
But she won't put us together
I guess she doesn't want to
Take the hint
I would love to be with you
Though I know
You would never
Could never
Care about me
The way you cared for her
That would be okay
As long as you cared
But I am
Living in a dream
I never could
Never will
Have you for my own
I assume you know
You can do better than her
But knowing you
You probably don't want to
