So maybe I’ll stay right here, stare at the silver screen
A window to the kind of love I wish it could have been
‘Coz when the credits start to roll, I know there’s no such thing
As a teenage love story with a happy ending.

So off the couple goes, into love that is forever
And now I’m sitting here and I cannot help but wonder
When they hold each other’s hand, is it meant to be
Is there a very special girl waiting out there for me
And here I am, all alone…

So maybe I’ll stay right here, and read romantic novels
The turn of every page of a love only for angels
‘Coz when I reach the final line, I know there’s no such thing
As a teenage love story with a happy ending.

So they kiss and make love, all through the night
And now I’m lying here, watching all that delight
When they kiss each other’s lips, and listen to every whisper
Will I ever have that one sweet night that we will both remember
And here I am, all alone…

So maybe I’ll stay right here, love songs stuck in my head
Every chord and rhyme my heart could never comprehend
‘Coz when I reach the final note, I know there’s no such thing
As a teenage love story with a happy ending.

So the last thing on my mind, is you right here beside me
I see the tears well up your eyes from one romantic movie
When I hold your hand, look in your eyes, and ask what’s on your mind
There I know, right here with you, I know that love is blind
And I realize, I’m not alone…

So maybe I’ll stay right here, and hold your hand in mine
Whatever I am thinking of, I’ll lay it all on the line
‘Coz when it all comes down to this, I now know there’s such a thing
As a teenage love story with a happy ending.

Is it so hard to understand, is it so hard to take it in
What is just so difficult
So complicated
What’s so hard to get about it when I say

Thank me when I’m gone
Thank me when I’m no longer by your side
There’s still so much I can give to you right now
Always and forever
Why are you thanking me so soon when I’m still beside you?

I never asked you for anything
I never asked you to answer my every call
I never asked you for something
I never asked you to catch me when I fall

Is it so hard to comprehend, is it so hard to take it in
What is the problem with all that
So exaggerated
What is so hard to get about it when I say

Thank me when I’m gone
Thank me when I’m no longer able to give
There’s still so much more that I could ever offer
Happy ever after
Thank me when the time comes that I am no longer with you

Will things be better tomorrow, will there be light in their day
If many things will go so wrong, will things turn right just for today?
For every part that’s ever played, they say love’s just a big charade
Those who think that love’s just a simple game to play…

This is no ordinary sunshine beaming in my life.

Sometimes I think of answers for the questions of my heart
I do not know where to begin, I wonder where to start
For every ode they ever wrote, and feelings that they sugarcoat
Who sing love songs in very different notes…

Will love come my way very soon, or has it passed me by
Should I stay and keep hoping, or bid all these feelings a goodbye?
For every piece of my broken heart, you ask if it will come apart
The day that all there would be is just me and you…

This is no ordinary sunshine beaming in my life.

Some people think of flowers, some people think of stars
Some people think of what theirs could be, but I think of what is ours
I see your soul right through your eyes, and I could only just surmise
That you feel the same way as I do with you…

This is no ordinary sunshine beaming in my life.
