lyrics

I thought you were the only one for me
But after time that wasn’t meant to be
I’m just a quiet, common, sensitive guy
But that didn’t stop me from trying
To make this work

My memory when we first met
Was all so very blurred
But you taught me how to be the one
I now know as the conquered
Our friendship developed
And so did our love
Would anything stop us?
Would anything push and shove

I once thought
Just us two
We would stay together
But as time went
So did us
Would we still talk together?

I know the pretty girl
Is nothing but the world
Oh it’s true
I still have feelings for you

Now I must have been blind
To know that you weren’t for real
But I soldiered on and coped
With these emotions that I feel
About you
Oh I still do
You may not think about me but
I still think about you

You seem so close
But to me you’re nowhere near
I can’t handle this
Tell me what I want to hear

You seem so close
But to me you’re far away
I can’t handle this
You need to know what I have to say

Would I dare hurt you?
Cos I care for you

I once thought
Just us two
We would stay together
But as time went
So did us
Would we still talk together?

I know the pretty girl
Is nothing but the world
Oh it’s true
I still have feelings for you

I thought you were the only one for me
But after time that wasn’t meant to be
I’m just a quiet, common, sensitive guy
But that never stopped me from trying
