Girl it's killing me to know
I'll never be with ya
I'll never be with ya
Never gonna be the one
I'll never be with ya
I'll never be with ya
I'll never be the one for you

I see the way that you look at him
Girl, I wish you looked at me that way
I see the way that you holdin' him
And its way more than my heart can take
And, girl, I think that its bout time that I should let you know
That I'm leaving you alone and I'm finally moving on
And its the hardest thing to step aside and let you go
But I realize

I'll never be the one you think of every night
I'll never be the one to give you butterflies
Its killing me to know we can never be more than friends
And that's where the story ends
I'll never be the one for you
I'll never be the one to make you fall in love
However hard I try, it just won't be enough
Can someone tell me how am I supposed to carry on
When I know I'll never be the one?

And I know I've only got myself to blame
'Cause, girl, I really thought that eventually one day you'd feel the same
But I see the way the way that he makes your heart skip a beat
I reall wish that that could be me
But it just wasn't meant to be
I'll never be the man that you need
And for so long now its been you that I've been living for
And now the dream is gone
How do I carry on?
'Cause its so hard to accept he's the one you really want
And I realize

I'll never be the one you think of every night
I'll never be the one to give you butterflies
Its killing me to know we can never be more than friends
And that's where the story ends
I'll never be the one for you
I'll never be the one to make you fall in love
However hard I try, it just won't be enough
Can't someone tell me how am I supposed to carry on
When I know I'll never be the one?

What do I do when the one I love is loving someone else
And she just don't feel the way I feel about her?
Someone tell me where do I go
When the one I need is needing someone else
And she just don't want me like the way I want her?

I guess this is the price I'm gonna have to pay
For dreaming my life away
I spent all my life, all my time
Its killin' me
Now I gotta say goodbye
Can't someone tell me why

I'll never be the one you think of every night
I'll never be the one to give you butterflies
Its killing me to know we can never be more than friends
And that's where the story ends
I'll never be the one for you
I'll never be the one to make you fall in love
However hard I try, it just won't be enough
Can't someone tell me how am I supposed to carry on
When I know I'll never be the one?

I'll never be the one you think of every night
I'll never be the one to give you butterflies
Its killing me to know we can never be more than friends
And that's where the story ends
I'll never be the one for you
