If Only

I shouldn't look for someone like you Who daydreams too much about wasting their youth And I shouldn't care, and I shouldn't care, but I do And I shouldn't stay up until 2 AM Hopelessly wondering what I can mend And I shouldn't care, and I shouldn't stare, but I do And if only I was somebody you wanted Just for the day, but you wanted Someone you know that would leave I know that never be me Strange how you don't know just how I think 'Cause I read your mind like it's written with ink Scribbles and mess, but lines that still play with my heart And if only I was somebody you wanted Just for the day, but you wanted Someone you know that would leave I know it's not what you need I wrote your name seventeen times Just to figure out when, figure out why And it's starting again, it's strange, I don't know Why you would stay if you knew you would go And you called out to me, desperately weak With something to say, if you only could speak And I tried to pretend, I just can't deny That I'd lie just for you if you passed me tonight If only I was somebody you wanted Just for the day, but you wanted Someone you know that would leave I know that never be me I know that never be me
