Lyrics

He?s the lucky one
Standing there by your side
Looks like he?s got it made
Without even having to try
All the things I should have said back then
Come back to haunt me when I see you with him

And I wish you knew
What I feel in side
How I lose my breath every time you walk by
And it breaks my heart every time you walk by
That there?s nothing I can do
And I wish you knew

I could of had it all
Guess I missed my chance
I heard the music play
But I never asked you to dance
And if I could I?d take us back in time
I rewrite the story and I?d make you mine

And I wish you knew
What I feel in side
How I lose my breath every time you walk by
And it breaks my heart every time you walk by
That there?s nothing I can do
And I wish you knew

A Million Time I should have said the words
But I never ever found the nerve

I wish you knew
What I feel in side
How I lose my breath every time you walk by
And it breaks my heart every time you walk by
That there?s nothing I can do
And I wish you knew
