I remember cheering you on at every football game'
Shoutin' number 20 as the running back takes your place.
I wave from the bleachers at the 30 yard line,
You only look away.
Dont you see, What it does to me,
When the game is called and the crowd goes home.
I get my chance with you alone
All you seem to do
Is look right through me
I've dreamt of you a thousand times
But you dont even bat an eye
It doesn't matter what i do.
Or how i try,
Im always the girl on the sidelines.
In the air or on the ground, I feel the spirit all around,
I guess you really drove it home agian.
As i watch you walk away with her in your arms
Like im only a friend.
Cant you see, That should be me, That should be me.
(Refrão)
Now i pretend your just a mistake
As i watch the instant replay,
Spinning round and round agian inside my mind.
I've dreamt of you a thousand times.
But you dont even bat an eye
It doesnt matter what i do
Or how i itry.
Im always the girl on the sidelines.
Just another girl. On the sidelines.
