And they met when they were young
With one thing in common
Two big city kids lost in a stupid world
Of egoistic boys and lying little girls
And he knows there was something there
`Cause he saw it in her stare
Or does he tell himself that for something to hold to Second guessing life `cause he doesn`t know the truth
And he knows, but he fakes it, that he`s doing okay And he knows, `cause he wastes it, his life and everyday
In his head he`s always known
The way the story`s supposed to go
But then she left, now she`s fifty states away
And he wastes his hours and squanders every day
`Cause now she`s just a dream
Of how things could have been
So he sits at home and wonders where she is
And what she`s doing, does she ever think of him
And he keeps on writing her letters
Ones he`ll never send
And he wishes he had a picture
So he could see her face again
And he knows, but he fakes it, that he`s doing okay And he knows, `cause he wastes it, his life and everyday
