I wonder if you knew
About those nights
When I longed for you
To hug me, and pull away my fright

When my stomach would do flips
And I'd feel sick
But I only want a glimpse
Even for a second, just real quick

Of the one I love
Whose heart I have
But no
Dear, you didn't know

I no longer yearn for you
Not intensely as before
Those nights when I was blue
"I don't want to ever need you," I swore

I used to smile and be happy
I still do
But I do now for me,
And hardly because of you
