Sidelines Lyrics

Yeah you're a real go-getter

And I'm an afterthought

I wish that I knew you better

But I don't know where to start

I'm on the outside looking in through a kaleidoscope

Praying that one day we might give it another go

I think I'll love you from the sidelines

Far away from the heat where I could get hurt

I think I'll love you from a distance

'Cause getting too close only makes matters worse

I'll hold on to the shred of you I have left

'Cause I don't want to lose you yet

I think I'm waiting for the right time

For now I'll love you from the sidelines

I know that it's been a minute

Since I could call you mine

You know I hate to admit it

But you always cross my mind

I'm on the outside looking in through a kaleidoscope

Praying that one day we might give it another go

I think I'll love you from the sidelines

Far away from the heat where I could get hurt

I think I'll love you from a distance

'Cause getting too close only makes matters worse

I'll hold on to the shred of you I have left

'Cause I don't want to lose you yet

I think I'm waiting for the right time

For now I'll love you from the sidelines

Can you hear me calling out your name

Oh I'm cheering for you all the way

No I don't care how long it takes

I think I'll love you from the sidelines

Far away from the heat where I could get hurt

I think I'll love you from a distance

'Cause getting too close only makes matters worse

I'll hold on to the shred of you I have left

'Cause I don't want to lose you yet

I think I'm waiting for the right time

For now I'll love you from the sidelines
