Not once did I expect this to happen.
Never in my wildest dream have I've fallen,
For a boy who wasn't my prince charming
Nor to someone who is my friend.

It must have been your sweetness that melted my heart
Or your gentle smile that could be the start.
Whatever the reason for me to feel this way,
One thing I know - this strange feeling grows stronger everyday.

All this time I've been praying
For you to see and look at me as a lady.
Every now and then I woke up dreaming
That I could be your girl, not just a friend.

Then reality broke me into pieces
It wounded me badly as it came to my senses
That you belong to someone else,
And I'm left alone with all this heartache.

A few might have a clue,
But nobody knows the pain I've been through.
They can't guess the sleepless nights
Nor count the tears I've cried.

My friends see me smiling and laughing,
Yet deep inside there's no place for denying.
I know I have to surrender and let go -
At least to cease and ease the misery.

Still I'd be happy,
Because happiness means seeing you being one.
And let me say this for once, I love you!
But I love you more, so goodbye...
