Lyrics
[Piano melody Intro melody]
[Extended build up]
[Verse 1]
I see you standing there, just you and me,
But there's always someone else, it seems to be.
I try to get closer, to tell you how I feel,
But there's always a third, making it unreal.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I think we’re alone,
She shows up, and my chance is blown.
[Chorus]
Oh, she’s always in the way,
Every time I try, you slip away.
Can't get past this friend of yours,
Blocking my love, closing doors.
[Instrumental build up]
[Verse 2]
We plan a perfect date, just you and me,
But here comes a text, now there’s three.
Laughing and talking, I'm left out again,
Wishing I could find a way to the end.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I think it’s just us two,
She shows up, and my dreams fall through.
[Chorus]
Oh, she’s always in the way,
Every time I try, you slip away.
Can't get past this friend of yours,
Blocking my love, closing doors.
[Bridge Instrumental interlude]
[Bridge continues]
I dream of moments, just us two,
Where I can finally say, "I love you."
But reality hits hard with that familiar face,
Stuck in the middle, feeling out of place.
[Chorus]
Oh, she’s always in the way,
Every time I try, you slip away.
Can't get past this friend of yours,
Blocking my love, closing doors.
[Instrumental Extended]
[Outro]
So here I am, on the sidelines again,
Hoping one day, this cycle will end.
I'll keep trying, no matter the cost,
Until that third wheel, is finally lost.
[Chorus]
Oh, she’s always in the way,
Every time I try, you slip away.
Can't get past this friend of yours,
Blocking my love, closing doors.
[Piano solo]
[Fade out]
I'll keep on loving, and someday you'll see,
That the only one for you, is me.
