Before

Before i knew it, things were different
Things went on as always
Only without me

Before i knew it, you found someone else
She gave you everything you needed
Something i guess i couldn't do

Before i knew it, you called me selfish
I guess wanted to spend time with you was wrong
Or maybe its just me

Before i knew it, the dearest of my friends
Took my by the hand
Took my by the heart

He showed me things you never did
He told me things i wished for you to say
And before i knew it, I fell in love

No second chances
Not with me
Because before you lost your chance
He was waiting for his.
