Who's to say that I'm obsessed

With everything you do

Just because it seems my schedule

Seems to shadow you

Who's to say that tired cliché is

More fish in the sea

And I don't mind treading water

'Cause you're the one for me

Chours:

D A

You say that by now

E A

I should know you'll never love me

D A

But who's to say that what has never

C D A

Been will never be

C D A

What has been will never be

Break

Verse 3:

Who's to say in time I wouldn't

Learn how to relax

You'd forget about my clammy

Hands and my nervous laugh

Who's to say the way you look at

Him is truly love

Maybe they should realize

I fit you like a glove

Chours then Break
