A love that didn't belong to me

It belonged to her

I had a love you see that wasn't mine to be

I felt it and had it vicariously

Through the eyes of a beautiful girl

I got to witness love in a tailspin and a whirl

Their love was so, so passionate every day

they enjoyed each other in every way

they laughed and they played

but never went away

they were devoted you see

totally happy

laughing and having fun

like giggling no time to run

then one day he saw me

not her with glee

his heart dropped real fast

it wasn't his memory

She was a mirage for him

just a make believe on a whim

wasn't nice to play the part

and break his heart

we both lost our hearts that day

neither of us know how to play

now it's lost our love together

because I lied and wouldn't stop
