You always knew when I wasn't okay You could always tell with just one look Then you'd sit down with me And just listen no matter how long it took. You were the only one That would say, "Tell me the truth" No one else has ever been able to see through this facade Now that you're gone I feel just as lost and alone But even more because nobody's been able to see me As you always could.  You always knew And found a way to cheer me up Even though we grew apart And had different friends.  You always knew And could make my day with just one hug Just one smile Just one small conversation.  These people I call friends Have yet to figure it out.  I keep missing you While waiting for someone els to say, "Tell me the truth" You always knew You always knew.

You Always Knew
You always knew when I wasn't okay You could always tell with just one look Then you'd sit down with me And just listen no matter how long it took. You were the only one That would say, "Tell me the truth" No one else has ever been able to see through this facade Now that you're gone I feel just as lost and alone But even more because nobody's been able to see me As you always could.  You always knew And found a way to cheer me up Even though we grew apart And had different friends.  You always knew And could make my day with just one hug Just one smile Just one small conversation.  These people I call friends Have yet to figure it out.  I keep missing you While waiting for someone els to say, "Tell me the truth" You always knew You always knew.
