I lie awake and die I try but can't deny
That I can't make it without her
I can't forget the day I let her slip away
And I'm still dreaming about her
Can a heart forgive cause I just can't live without her
Why did this have to happen to us? Kel and I were so happy. We were so happy—until Roald ruined it all for us. When I caught them kissing, I didn't know what to think—so I broke up with her. She left. Breaking up with her was the biggest mistake of my life, I realize that now.
The next time you see my girl
Won't you say that I, I will die, I would die to hold her
The next time you see my girl, won't you tell her I love her
The next time you see my girl
Maybe the next time
It literally hurts me to think of her, or any kind of love, for that matter. It seems that wherever I go, there are couples passing me, or sitting in the courtyard together. We used to do that. It's almost as if they're trying to spite me. That they know what happened between Kel and I, and they have to rub it in my face.
I walk the streets at night see lovers passing by
And it's all a reminder
Of what it used to be when she was here with me
I only wish I could find her
Did she disappear cause I'm waiting right here for her
The next time you see my girl
Won't you say that I, I will die, I would die to hold her
The next time you see my girl, won't you tell her I love her
The next time you see my girl
Maybe the next time
Every time I try to sleep, her face materializes. I can't stop it. And sometimes I wonder if I even want to.
I close my eyes I see her face and I realize
But in front of me I had it all but I set her free
So next time you see my girl
Oh won't you tell her that I'm sorry
Tell her that I love her
I wish I knew where she went. I want so much to tell her I'm sorry. And that I forgive her. I just hope she'll forgive me too.
The next time you see my girl
Won't you say that I, I will die, I would die to hold her
The next time you see my girl, won't you tell her I love her
The next time you see my girl
Maybe the next time
