My rich friend invited me to a party over at his house

I didn't expect to see the girl who was going to be my spouse

The girl that ran out with another guy

The girl who left me on the wedding day to cry

It was supposed to be the happiest day of my life

Because I was going to get a wife

And as I saw her standing there looking the same

The memories flashed and the tears came again

            I stood there watching her

            As she danced with somebody

            I stood there watching her

            So filled with jealously

            I stood there watching her

My friend walked up and asked if I knew her

I said yeah but not so well

He asked if I wanted to dance with her

But to me our dance was over, So I

            I stood there watching her

            As she danced with somebody

            I stood there watching her

            So filled with jealously

            I stood there watching her

I wonder what she was doing all these years

I wonder if she ever thought of my pain and tears

When the party was over I didn't bother to call her out

I just walked around in the night and thought of what could have been love

But all through the night

            I stood there watching her
