Lyrics

HE'S NOT MINE

I would die a hundred deaths
To keep him alive.
And I would sink down to the depths
If that would help him fly.

Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed...
Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed.

I would deconstruct my life
Just to build his up.
And I would give him all I got
And make sure that's enough.

Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed...
Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed.

I wake up okay,
And my day is fine
Until I stop and realize
He's not mine...he's not mine.

I want to touch his face
And make sure that he's real
I want to plead my case -
True feelings are too hard to conceal.

He's got a broken heart
And a gaping void to fill
I want to say the words -
The words he needs to hear.

Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed...
Oh, how I wish that I was what he needed.

I wake up okay,
And my day is fine
Until I stop and realize
He's not mine...he's not mine.

I have opened doors -
Both figurative and literal -
And I have been ignored,
And I'm trying to forget it all -

Oh, how I wish that he was not what I needed,
Oh, how I wish that he was not what I needed -

I have opened doors -
And I have been ignored...
Oh, how I wish that he was not what I needed.
Oh, how I wish that he was not what I needed...
