he looks at me
i fake a smile so he won't see
what i want and i need and
everything that we should be
i'll bet she's beautiful
that girl he talks about
and she's got everything
that i have to live without
he talks to me
i laugh 'cos it's so funny
that i can't even see
anyone when he's with me
he says he's so in love
he's finally got it right
i wonder if he knows
he's all i think about at night
he's the reason
for the teardrops on my guitar
the only thing that keeps me
wishing on a wishing star
he's the song in the car
i keep singing
don't know why i do
he walks by me
can he tell that i can't breathe?
and there he goes, so perfectly
the kind of flawless
i wish i could be
she better hold him tight
and give him all her love
look in those beautiful eyes
and know she's lucky 'cos
he's the reason
for the teardrops on my guitar
the only thing that keeps me
wishing on a wishing star
he's the song in the car
i keep singing
don't know why i do
so i'll drive home alone
as i turn out the light
i'll put his picture down
and maybe get some sleep tonight
he's the reason
for the teardrops on my guitar
the only one who's got enough of me
to break my heart
he's the song in the car
i keep singing
don't know why i do
he's the time, taken up
but there's never enough
and he's all that i need to fall into
he looks at me
i fake a smile so he won't see...
i miss you.
and i love you,
too much for my own good.
