The other guy

Do I seem distant?
For I am a little lost
I could live in the moment
But at what cost?

You want me to forget
The way he makes me feel
You want me to believe
That this is real

His smell still lingers
His words still echo
For he knew all the
Right things to say

He made me laugh
When I was down
Took me for midnight strolls
All around the town

He knew how I liked
My chamomile
And you want me to believe
That is this is real?

His smell still lingers
His words still echo
For he knew all the
Right things to say

It's unfair to you
I couldn't do the secrecy
I love you but I'd
Rather be with my fantasy

He's loved me more
More than you could
And I'd swap the two
Of you, if I could

It probably sounds like
An unfair deal
I have a hard time believing
He isn't real

His smell still lingers
His words still echo
For he knew all the
Right things to say
