Missing What Never Was

I don't mean to be so distant,
I don't mean to ruin the life of the party.
But when I see you there
I can't help but close my eyes,
and imagine what we could be
if it was you and me.
But then I come back to reality,
to be honest I don't like what I see.
You're hand in hand and walking by
like there's no care in the world.
If only you could see
that I've been losing my mind over you.
I'm not the best at expressing how I feel,
but now I'm thinking maybe that's a good thing.
I'll save myself the embarrasment of looking like a fool chasing after you.
I never thought someone would be able to steal
a part of my heart without even trying.
But now I see that it's not even real.
I'm missing what never was.
Our eyes meet from across the room,
and I smile awkwardly cuz I know
that you have no idea how I feel.
We've been friends for a while now,
you should be able to smile now without taking my breath away.
You don't see me the way I see you,
it's obvious now.
It's clear that you can't see that I've been losing my mind over you.
I'm not the best at expressing how I feel,
but now I'm thinking maybe that's a good thing.

But now I see that it's not even real.
I'm missing what never was.
I'm missing what never was.
You and me
will never be
together.
It's you and her now.
(It's you and her now.)
And I have to be okay with it
so I'll fake a smile and wish you well.
I wish you well.

It's not even real,
I'm missing what never was.
