it's not my party so i'll cry in my car

he danced with every girl in the room twice

but he didn't dance with me once

he only pulled me aside and asked if i was alright

and i lied to his face and said i was

so he knocked back another and got her alone

and i'm glad he didn't see me in the doorway

because he would've seen red swollen eyes

and not the love of his life going in for the kiss

i was just going to ask him to walk me to my car

i was just going to say goodbye

but why would he say his last goodbye to me

when he was saying hello to the love of his life

so i just turned on Sparks and drove home

and i let the tears roll and the sobs break

and i wished that he would've danced with me once

and i wished that our kisses could've healed his broken heart

instead of breaking mine

and i wished that the party was my party

so i could've cried in front of everyone

and not alone in my car
