There is a girl that I know who lies on hot coal
knowing she should burn but complains she’s cold
She’s the girl who fell in love with a boy
Says the heart brakes easier when he’s 300 miles away
I told her she is the bad love song on the radio
The one that keeps playing, always when I want to forget
But she shook her head laughing, Saying “Loves songs
Will consume me but they’ll never set me free”
To me she’s my love song, but to her
She’s a supporting actress in her best friend’s soap opera
If I ask her and she’ll tell me, she’ll close her door
Leave her bedroom windows open, waiting for me to find a way in
She won’t admit that I love her, she sees me as her best friend
But she keeps telling me, and I don’t want to listen
That she’s in love with a friend
When I ask why she won’t go for it with him
She’ll whisper in the phone to tell me a secret
“I’m with him now the way I want him."
