&quot;When you&#039;re young, you can fly, but we trip on clouds &#039;cause we get too high&quot; -The Band Perry (Song: Don&#039;t Let Me Be Lonely)<br /> &quot;Cause no matter what, you&#039;ll never be alone&quot; -Lady Antebellum (Song: Compass)


(Verse One)
These days have been harder to push through
Because I no longer have you
Especially now that you’ve found a new girl
That you treat like the center of your world
While I’m on the back burner
Trying to figure out what lessons need to be learned

(Chorus)
The way you go that extra mile
Just to see her brightly smile
The way you hug her so very tight
And treat her like your shining light
The way she laughs at all your jokes
It makes my heart choke
‘Cause I’m not her

(Verse Two)
Watching you treat that girl like gold
Shatters not only my heart, but my soul
You left without a second thought
Of who we are or what we’ve got
It’s so hard standing in the shadows all night
While she’s on center stage with the big spotlight

(Chorus)
The way you go that extra mile
Just to see her brightly smile
The way you hug her so very tight
And treat her like your shining light
The way she laughs at all your jokes
It makes my heart choke
‘Cause I’m not her

(Bridge)
In order to make myself soar through the sky
I’ll have to spread my wings and learn to fly
Higher than the highest clouds
After letting go of the things that weigh me down
I’ll have to pour out my feelings for you
And all our immortal memories too

(Chorus)
The way you go that extra mile
Just to see her brightly smile
The way you hug her so very tight
And treat her like your shining light
The way she laughs at all your jokes
It makes my heart choke
‘Cause I’m not her
