Did you take a wrong turn to pass me by
Or did you mean to walk past and catch my eye
'Cause you were acting kinda shy
Then I took a chance and asked you out
For a month we circled roundabouts
I was falling faster
Than the speed of light
So last night when I saw you out
In another man's arms
It cut like a knife
Now I'm standing here alone
On the street where we first met
I'm falling deeper tryin' to get you out of my head
Staring at my phone
Hoping someday you'll call it
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
Looking back I wonder, did I try?
Try enough or was I petrified
To say what was running through my mind
It ain't easy acting like I'm fine
Yeah, it tears me up he's holding you tonight
Did I let you pass me by?
'Cause that night when I saw you out
In another man's arms
It cut like a knife
Now I'm standing here alone
On the street where we first met
I'm falling deeper tryin' to get you out of my head
Staring at my phone
Hoping someday you'll call it
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
Wasn't easy acting like I was fine
For a year it tore me up inside
But I still think of you sometimes
Now I'm standing here alone
On the street where we first met
I'm falling deeper tryin' to get you out of my head
Staring at my phone
Hoping someday you'll call it
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
I'm standing here alone
On the street where we first met
I'm falling deeper tryin' to get you out of my head
Staring at my phone
Hoping someday you'll call it
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
I only knew I loved you when I watched you go
