NEVER KNEW

NEVER KNEW

Verse 1
Saw you smiling in the sunlight,
Ever since, I lost my peace.
You walk right past me every morning,
Like my shadow in the street.

I stand right here beside you,
But you never turn around.
All these words I keep inside me,
Fall like rain upon the ground.

Chorus
You never knew, you never saw,
The way my heart kept calling.
So close to you, all this time,
Still you never heard me falling.

No rest at night, no peace of mind,
Just your memory haunting me.
You never knew I loved you, babe,
And that's the way it'll always be.

Verse 2
Between devotion and obsession,
I've worn circles in my soul.
Every dream keeps whispering your name,
Though I know I'll never hold you close.

Then the morning comes to find me,
Pulling truth into the light.
Some dreams were born to break us,
Some loves never survive.

Chorus
You never knew, you never saw,
The way my heart kept calling.
So close to you, all this time,
Still you never heard me falling.

No rest at night, no peace of mind,
Just your memory haunting me.
You never knew I loved you, babe,
And that's the way it'll always be.

Bridge
Butterflies and silent longing,
Hidden deep behind my eyes.
You saw a friend, a passing stranger,
Never saw my disguise.

Final Chorus
You never knew, you never saw,
How deep these feelings ran.
Standing right beside you, darling,
Just an invisible man.

No rest at night, no peace of mind,
Till the day they bury me.
You never knew I loved you, babe,
And that's the saddest blues I'll sing.
