Yesterday I passed you by
I kept on walking 'cause I don't want you to see me crying
You looked so good and seemed to feel so well
I turned around I hesitated
I got so close to you but yet so far away
All I wanted to do was yell out your name
I can see that you're much better off without me, without me
You deserve the best a girl can ever have

Chorus:
Everything I see reminds me of us
Every thought of you is glorious
All I want for you is happiness
Cassandra, Cassandra

Guess I failed to end this fairytale
A big mistake I must confess
No happy ever afterness
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra, baby

I'm right outside your balcony
Standing exactly where I shouted: 'Will you marry me?'
How the hell could this go so wrong, yeah yeah
But now I see a family
A little kid and a husband that looks a bit like me
And I'm so happy for you girl, oh, yeah yeah
I can see that you're much better off without me, without me, babe
You deserve the best a girl can ever have

Chorus:
Everything I see reminds me of us
Every thought of you is glorious
All I want for you is happiness
Cassandra, Cassandra

Guess I failed to end this fairytale
A big mistake I must confess
No happy ever afterness
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra

I find myself so often daydreaming about us, baby
What we could have been
I see us holding hands walking down the boulevards of crying violins
But the truth is not as wonderful
And I'll regret for life all that I blew
But I'm truly happy for you

Chorus:
Everything I see reminds me of us
Every thought of you is glorious
All I want for you is happiness
Cassandra, Cassandra

Guess I failed to end this fairytale
A big mistake I must confess
No happy ever afterness
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra
Cassandra, Cassandra

Yesterday I passed you by
I kept on walking 'cause I don't want you to see me crying
Cassandra
