What did she have that I couldn't give him? That's the question I couldn't stop asking myself after he chose her. To me, what we had had always felt undeniable. There was something rare and intense between us, something I couldn't imagine simply disappearing. So when she came along, I couldn't help wondering why she was interfering with something that was ours. I kept comparing myself to her, trying to understand what she had that I didn't.

[VERSE] Was it always meant to be me? In your eyes, that's what I see . [CHORUS] What did you see that I couldn't give? I always thought it should have been me What did you see that I couldn't give? Now I can see the third was me What did you see that I couldn't give? Now I can see the third was me What did you see that I couldn't give? Now I can see the third was memore
