My Secret's Safe

So you told me I looked nice
And, dammit, I did
You leaned on my shoulder
An all-together not too-weird move
And yet it seemed strange
'Cause you had never done it before

Chitter, chatter, mostly chatter
We finally made it up to the dancefloor
Of course, with everyone else 
That was the only way I could dance with you
Only if I danced with her too
'Cause that's who you were dancing with

Yes, but not the whole time
I got to dance with you too
And I made sure it was worth your while
Rubbed right up against you
I knew what I was doing
'Cause I wanted you regardless of her

She's so nice to me, though
I wonder if she even has any idea
If she knows as much as you do
My secret's safe
And I don't want to take you away from her
'Cause it's be better if she just gave you to me

I want you so bad
And I know we'd be perfect
Why couldn't you have just waited and fallen in love with me?
I came and was ready for it all to happen
But she was still there and you were still her's
'Cause really she's everything you need and I would only get in the way
