English Version:
I.
I never thought I'd meet someone like you
My heart is doing fine even before you came
It has been a while since I've felt this way
My poor heart was broken early by the people around me
II.
I'm used to being alone
Until you made me feel these unwanted emotions
You were persistent which made me open up bit by bit
I've been the happiest when I'm with you
III.
You broke my trust just when I started believing that true love exists
Your promises were never true
What you showed me were all part of the show
Where I am the villain and she is the main actress
IV.
You left me when all I've ever got is you
You left me when you made me get used to your presence
You left me when you've been part of my life
You left me when I thought you're my other half
V.
Now, I see you with with her
Walking in the aisle, Saying I do's
And here I am, the maid of honor
The best friend of the groom
*****
Filipino Version:
I.
Hindi ko akalain na may makikilala akong tulad mo
Ang puso ko ay maayos bago ka pa man dumating
Matagal na mula ng huling maramdaman ko ito
Maagang nasaktan ang puso ko ng mga tao sa paligid ko
II.
Sanay na akong mag isa
Ngunit lahat ay nagbago ng pinaramdam mo sa akin ang mga damdaming di naman gusto
Ikaw ay matyaga na naging dahilan kung bakit natuto akong magtiwala paunti unti
Ako ang pinakamasaya sa tuwing kasama kita
III.
Sinira mo ang asking tiwala kung kailan ako nagsimulang maniwala na may pag-ibig na walang hanggan
Ang mga pangako mo ay hindi totoo
Lahat ng ipinakita mo ay parte ng palabas
Kung saan ako ang kontrabida at sya ang bida
IV.
Iniwan mo ako kung kailan ikaw na lang ang meron ako
Iniwan mo ako kung kailan sanay na akong kasama ka
Iniwan mo ako kung kailan naging parte ka na ng buhay ko
Iniwan mo ako kung kailan ko ikaw na ang kabiyak
V.
Ngayon nakita kitang kasama sya
Naglakakad patungo sa altar
Ako ay narito, abay na pandangal
Matalik na kaibigan mo
