The Way You're Looking at Her

It's not easy to hate something you love

It's not easy to commit to giving up

Behind the smile, you face the world alone

And I thought the feelings had gone

And I've been wallowing in hollow victories

But I'd cast away my pride, take pleasure in defeat

If you'd just look at me, the way you're looking at her

If you'd just look at me, the way you're looking at her

I'm not jealous of the way you make her cry

I'm not jealous of her covering up your lies

But I remember when that foolish girl was me

And how lucky I felt to be the one that you needed

I'd forget what you did, I'd throw it in the loft

I'd step out on the bridge, and bring myself to cross

If you'd just look at me, the way you're looking at her

If you'd just look at me, the way you're looking at her

I never thought I'd say it

You're the one I thought I hated

What am I doing? Why am I waiting?

What am I waiting here for?

It's not easy to hate something you love

It's not easy to commit to giving up

But sometimes in life your heart don't know what it needs

And what's bitter seems sweet

You took the best of me, I never did escape

I know it's foolish, and I know you'll never change

Still I'm wishing you'd look at me the way you're looking at her

Wishing you'd look at me, the way you're looking at her

Wishing you'd look at me, the way you're looking at her

Her
