Eyes for him

Verse

The saddest moment of my life

was the happiest of yours;

watching you getting married

was pure hell to endure.

He placed the ring on your finger

and he lifted up your veil;

when he kissed you on your lips

I knew that I had failed.

Chorus

I was caring; I was kind

You saw me as a friend.

I wanted you to love me

but you had eyes for him.

Yes, you had eyes for him.

Verse

The saddest moment in my life

was the happiest for you.

Your journey was beginning

and mine with you was through.

He placed the ring on your finger

and a tear came to my eye.

Your hopes were just beginning

I had just lost mine.

Chorus

I was caring; I was kind

You saw me as a friend.

I wanted you to love me

but you had eyes for him.

Yes, you had eyes for him.

Bridge

As you exited the chapel

you said, you’ll find someone some day

but in my heart of hearts, I knew;

I’d let love slip away.

Verse

The saddest moment in my life

was watching you drive away.

I’m always going to regret

three words I didn’t say.

I should’ve told you I loved you.

I should’ve put up a fight.

Maybe you’d have eyes for me

and we’d be sharing life?

Chorus

I was caring; I was kind

You saw me as a friend.

I wanted you to love me

but you had eyes for him.

Yes, you had eyes for him.
