I have never been the "main", just "the other"
Born without a father and only with a mother
Trying to live right and treat people good
Doing what it takes to do what I should
I met you and my life was changed
I fell for you and my heart rearranged
You came and went much too fast in my life
I wanted you but you were a wife
The feeling was mutual but then you had to go
Now I am here sinking... LOW...low... low
I am the option, I am the 2nd chance
I am the one who waits to dance
In my heart is where I hold you dear
In your heart do you ever hold me near
When I see you out there in passing by
sometimes you smile and sometimes you cry
I know its hard for you to get through the pain
Sunny days are good but lately its all rain
You are so beautiful and the one that I love
I know you love me too but I'm never enough
I am just a hand that has no chance
I am the one who waits to dance
I had never known a love like you
A complete connection through and through
You said you would never leave me all alone
Now you are gone and its as cold as stone
When I hear a laugh, I can see your sweet face
I hear your name and my heart starts to race
To me, you are my world but to you I am a regret
A slap in the face that you wish you had not met
No matter how far you push me away
My love for you will never stray
I will be here waiting on you for my chance
After all, I am the one who waits to dance
