Lyrics
[intro]
Verse 1:
I saw you there across the room
Laughing loud under the neon gloom
Your eyes, they sparkle, but not for me
Since you traded us for his company
Verse 2:
We used to dance, we used to fly
Now I'm just a shadow as you pass by
With him, you're glowing, a perfect scene
While I'm just a footnote of what could've been
[hook]
Chorus:
Now I'm on the outside looking in
Seeing my tomorrow with the ghost of what's been
Heartbroken whispers, now you're with him
I'm on the outside, and it's looking so grim
Verse 3:
I remember laughs, I remember cries
Now they're just echoes under other guys’ skies
You moved on fast, didn't skip a beat
While I'm still piecing back my half-complete
[break]
Verse 4:
There you go, hand in his like it's meant to be
Every smile you share, used to be with me
How do you rewrite the stars so quick?
Am I the only one who feels sick?
Chorus:
Now I'm on the outside looking in
Seeing my tomorrow with the ghost of what's been
Heartbroken whispers, now you're with him
I'm on the outside, and it's looking so grim
Verse 5:
You're his world now, you're his queen
In a castle of lies, so pristine
I was your truth, but you chose the dare
Now I watch you vanish into thin air
Verse 6:
Maybe tomorrow, I'll find a way
To clear the clouds and chase the pain away
But tonight, I'm just a shadow's friend
Watching you with him, wondering what could've been
Chorus:
Now I'm on the outside looking in
Seeing my tomorrow with the ghost of what's been
Heartbroken whispers, now you're with him
I'm on the outside, and it's looking so grim
Outro:
One day I'll be past the pain, past the blue
But tonight, I'm just the fool who lost you
Outside looking in, and it's hard to pretend
That seeing you with him isn't making me bend
[Fade to End]
