sidelines

i remember cheering you on at every football game, shoutin' number 20 as a running back takes your place, i wave from the bleachers on the 30 yard line, you only look away, don't you see what it does to me, when the game is cold and the crowd goes home, i get my chance with you alone, all you seem to do, is look right through me, i've dreamt of you a thousand times, but you don't even bat an eye, it doesn't matter what i do, or how i try, i'm always the girl on the sidelines, in the air or on the ground, i feel the spirt all around, i guess you really drove it home again, as i watch you walk away with her in your arms, like i'm only a friend, can't you see that should be me, that should be me, when the game is cold and the crowd goes home, i get my chance with you alone, all you seem to do, is look right through me, i've dreamt of you a thousand times, but you don't even bat an eye, it doesn't matter what i do, or how i try, i'm always the girl on the sidelines, now pretend your just a mistake, as i watch the instant replay, spinnin' round and round again inside my mind, i've dreamt of you a thousand times, but you don't even bat an eye, it doesn't matter what i do, or how i try, i'm always the girl on the sidelines, i'm just another girl on the sidelines
