I've been holding onto this for too long Trying to make it by Day to day continue to wait For you to come aroundBut you don't ever seem to get the picture Or maybe I refuse to Listen to my friends That you're just too Good for meSo I'll pretend that I'm Happy for you and him When he comes around But I hope I'm not aroundI hope I'm moving to New York Or touring L. A I hope I never get the chance to See his face I'm not angry I'm just jealous of Whoever he will be But I know you'll be happier if He isn't meIf he isn't meSo what now Where am I supposed to go from here It's harder than it looks If I give it a couple years Will my feelings forget their hurtingAnd tell me how Do I get over perfection? No one seems to mention I guess my friends were right You're just too good for meSo I'll pretend that I'm Happy for you and him When he comes around But I hope I'm not aroundI hope I'm moving to New York Or touring L. A I hope I never get the chance to See his face I'm not angry I'm just jealous of Whoever he will be But I know you'll be happier if He isn't meNo I don't want anybody else But I'll keep that to myself 'Cause I see it in your face That's not what you want me to say Not what you want me to saySo I'll pretend that I'm happy for you and him When he comes around But I hope I'm not aroundI hope I'm moving to New York Or touring L. A I hope I never get the chance to See his face I'm not angry I'm just jealous of Whoever he will be But I know you'll be happier if He isn't me
