In Demand
Texas Lyrics

We were together i was blown away,
When we were together, I was completely enamored by you.

just like paper from a fan,
My feelings for you were as fragile and light as a piece of paper blown by a fan.

but you would act like i was just a kid,
You treated me like a child, not taking our relationship seriously.

like we were never gonna last.
You had no faith in us and didn't believe our relationship would endure.

But now i've got someone who cares for me, yeah, he wrote my name in silver sands.
I have found someone who truly cares about me, as evidenced by the heartfelt gesture of writing my name in the sand.

I think you know you've lost the love of your life
I believe you understand that you have let go of the one true love of your life.

and you said "i was the best you've ever had",
You recognize that I was the best partner you ever had.

because I'm in demand,
My desirability as a partner has increased significantly.

you're thinking of the way you should have held my hand
You now regret the times when you should have held my hand but failed to do so.

and all the times you said you didn't understand,
You regret not understanding my emotions and needs during our time together.

you never had our love written in your plans,
You never had our love as a priority in your future plans and goals.

but now I'm in demand.
My newfound popularity as a partner has made you regret taking me for granted.

don't ever think you saw the best of me,
You didn't witness the full extent of my abilities and potential as a person.

there's a side you'll never know,
There are aspects of myself that you will never discover or understand.

coz love and loving are two different things, set your sights far too low.
You failed to realize that love and the act of loving are two separate concepts, and you didn't set your expectations high enough.

Its only when i fall asleep,
My thoughts and feelings only fully come to light when I am asleep and dreaming.

i see that winning smile,
When I dream, I see a genuine and content smile on my face.

then my dreams just move along,
After seeing my smiling face, my dreams progress and I move on from my past with you.

you've lost the race by miles.
You lost the fight for my love and affection by a significant margin.
