I loved you,
Because I thought you understood me
But your eyes, today, tell me
That we were always strangers
I loved you,
Because I thought that the extras in you,
Would fill up the deficiencies in me,
But it wouldn't come about,
As you and I were never meant to be
Thinking back upon it, I realize now,
All those times, I thought, somehow,
I thought, but, wrong,
For it was always the other way round.
I thought you understood,
I thought that you would
Complete me in ways known to few,
But now I know, that I thought all that
Because I loved you.
I loved you.
I loved you, but you never did
I loved hard, but from me, love hid
So, now, I walk alone,
Hands in pockets and a heart of stone
Walking an untrodden path,
That was, to a very few, known.

As you and I were never meant to be

For it was always the other way round.

Complete me in ways known to few,
But now I know, that I thought all that
Because I loved you.

I loved you, but you never did
I loved hard, but from me, love hid
So, now, I walk alone,
Hands in pockets and a heart of stone
Walking an untrodden path,
That was, to a very few, known.
