[Verse 1]
I thought I could breathe again
I thought I was done with all the stressing
I thought I could make up for lost time and maybe I'd be myself again
The answer to the question
Seems so well within my reach

[Pre-Chorus]
All the nights that I cried for nothing
Oh, boy, was I wrong
You still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Oh, boy, was I wrong
The tear stains still left here on my bed
I thought it would be easy
To pick up and leave this all behind me, behind me

[Chorus]
Ain't no way around it
This love I have is stranded here
I thought that I had found it
But now the page seems so clear
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
[Verse 2]
I saw you across the way
I saw you and her together
I saw you and I tried to shy away but in my heart I knew to stay
Being around you
Makes it hard for me to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]
Not so hard for me to handle
Oh, boy, was I wrong
You still have my heart in the palm of your hand
Oh, boy, was I wrong
The tear stains still left here on my bed
I thought it would be easy
To pick up and leave this all behind me, behind me

[Chorus]
Ain't no way around it
This love I have is stranded here
I thought that I had found it
But now the page seems so clear
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
[Chorus]
Ain't no way around it
This love I have is stranded here
I thought that I had found it
But now the page seems so clear
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
For everyone to see
You're with her, but you belong to me
