Second Hand Fiction
Unrequited Longing: Second Hand Fiction's Tale of Love and Heartache
Lyrics
I remember the day when you caught me
I recall the moment when you discovered me
looking at you from the back seat
Observing you from the rear seat
we locked eyes when the light went red
We made eye contact when the traffic light turned red
all I could see was you in my bed
All I could envision was us together in bed
you said you and I could never be
You asserted that a romantic relationship between us was impossible
you and I are second hand fiction
We, as a couple, are like characters in a recycled story
you and I could never be
You reiterated that we could never be together
Girl I‘m never gonna love someone
Expressing the commitment to never love anyone else more
any better than the way I love you
Girl, my love for you is unparalleled
girl I’m never gonna love someone
Girl, I'll never find a love greater than the one I have for you
any better than the way I'm gonna love you
Girl, my future love for you will be incomparable
any better than the way I’m gonna love you
Anticipating a love for you that surpasses any other
I remember the candles and cell phones
Recollection of a setting with candles and cell phones
they lit up your face at the gladstone
The ambiance illuminated your face at the Gladstone
your breath on my neck when you talked to me
Your warm breath on my neck during our conversation
the smoke of your voice I could barely breath
Your voice's impact on me felt like suffocating smoke
I remember the night in the restaurant
Memory of an evening at a restaurant, pretending indifference
pretending to be so nonchalant
Trying to appear casual as you entered with someone else
you walked in the door with someone else
You arrived with another person, dampening the night
but I wouldn't go home by myself
Despite the circumstance, I chose not to leave alone
