She's Never There Lyrics

Next time around

I want the real deal

Not the secondhand love you sold

I want the love that was promised to me

The kind that’s gonna set me free

Not the lackluster love you know

Next time around

I won’t hide from the lies

And a heart that’s not made of gold

I’ll find the one who’s still waiting for me

Passing the hours while sand slides to sea

And I’ll smile while the story is told

But I always remember

That she’s not there

Never was, never will be

She moves like the air

She’s all around me

She’s everywhere

But whenever I look

She’s never there

Next time around

I’m gonna open my eyes

And take a deep look in your soul

I gotta see what you think about me

I gotta see who you want me to be

I gotta know if lovin you is gonna dig me a hole

Next time around

I’m gonna look for the truth

And the lover who will watch me grow old

I’ll find the one who was destined for me

And we can have each other’s company

And laugh about the feelings we hold

But I always remember

That she’s not there

Never was, never will be

She moves like the air

She’s all around me

She’s everywhere

But whenever I look

She’s never there

She speaks to me but she doesn’t exist

She kisses my cheek with morning mist

She tugs at my fingers and messes my hair

I turn around, she was never there
