Drew  looks  at me,  I fake  a smile so he won’t see
That  I want  and I’m needing, everything  that we should be
I'll  bet she’s beautiful,  that girl he talks about
And  she’s got everything that I  have to live without
Drew  talks  to me,  I laugh  cause it’s so damn funny
That  I can’t  even see, anyone  when he’s with me
He  says he’s so in love, he’s  finally got it right
I  wonder if he knows he’s all  I think about at night
He’s  the reason for the teardrops  on my guitar
The  only thing that keeps me wishing  on a wishing star
He’s  the song in the car  I keep singing, don’t know why  I do
Drew walks  by me, can  he tell that I can’t breathe?
And  there he goes  so perfectly
 The kind of flawless  I wish I could be
She’d  better hold him tight, give  him all her love
Look  in those beautiful eyes and  know she’s lucky cause
He’s  the reason for the teardrops  on my guitar
The  only thing that keeps me wishing  on a wishing star
He’s  the song in the car  I keep singing, don’t know why  I do
So  I drive home alone, as  I turn out the light
I  put his picture down, and maybe  get some sleep tonight
Cause  he’s the reason for the teardrops  on my guitar
The  only one who’s got enough  of me to break my heart
He’s  the song in the car  I keep singing, don’t know why  I do
 He’s the time,  taken up, but there’s never  enough
 And he’s all  that I need to fall into
Drew  looks  at me,  I fake  a smile so he won’t see
