About the song
I wrote this when I realized how much more a girl deserved than me...she dserved someone better than I could be.
Lyrics
I've stayed around, not seein it was over
Refused to see that she was over me
I tried so damn hard to show that I still love her
And just a friend is something I can't be
(chorus)
She deserves to see the stars tonight
To have all her dreams realized
The chance to love with all her heart
And no one to tear her world apart
She deserves to see every sunrise
To see her future in a lover's eyes
She deserves to be happy
But most of all...
Someone better than I could be
It's been so long and gone too far
So stayin here just breaks both our hearts
I know that I must leave my love behind
If there's a chance I can be alright
(chorus)
Refused to see that she was over me
I tried so damn hard to show that I still love her
And just a friend is something I can't be
(chorus)
She deserves to see the stars tonight
To have all her dreams realized
The chance to love with all her heart
And no one to tear her world apart
She deserves to see every sunrise
To see her future in a lover's eyes
She deserves to be happy
But most of all...
Someone better than I could be
It's been so long and gone too far
So stayin here just breaks both our hearts
I know that I must leave my love behind
If there's a chance I can be alright
(chorus)
