I’m not the girl You fall hopelessly, Madly, irrevocably In love with. I’m the girl Who holds her place. You won’t fall In love with me At first sight. You won’t get That meet cute, The one you’ll have With her. I’m the girl You have to be Friends with. I’m the one You think you love; The one you Want to be true Because I’m too good For you to lose. At least that’s what you think Until you meet her. I won’t steal your attention The first time you see me. You won’t have that ‘Oh wow’ moment, The one I wish you would. You won’t meet me And go to your friend, Telling them all about The pretty girl You have a crush on. I’m the one you think You’re putting all the effort in for Until you meet her And everything becomes effortless. I’m the girl You’ll feel bad for When you leave, Though not for long Because you’ll Forget all about me. I’m the placeholder For the girl You’ll call ‘The one’.
