The Other Girl

I watch him with that other girl
It makes me want to cry
I watch him and I wish that
The other girl would die

I watch him with the other girl
I pretend everything's okay
I watch them and I wish
The other girl would go away

He seems so happy with her
Yet I feel it isn't fair
I close my eyes and hope
The other girl was never there

I watch him with the other girl
Though it hurts so deep inside
I watch them and I wish
That I could run away and hide

Why can't he feel how I feel?
Or know how much I hurt?
Why doesn't he know just how much
He treated me like dirt?

I look at them and wonder
Why he chose her over me
I look at her and ask myself
What it is I cannot see

Was I not beautiful enough?
My wit and care not good?
Did I not treat him as he wished?
Or treat him and I should?

I watch him with her and it seems
My heart pounds in my chest
He smiles when he sees her
And I have to catch my breath

So pardon if I cry and moan
Pardon if I weep
Pardon if I sound upset
The pain is just too deep

I watch him with that other girl
But I wish him happiness
For I would rather have him in my life
Than never be his friend
