You can't know how I feel
For whatever reasons may be
If you did know how I feel
You wouldn't do it to me
You don't need me
But surely I need you
If somehow we drifted apart
I don't know what I'd do
I know you don't try
It's nobody's fault
When I sit off to the side
And either nobody listened
Or nobody heard
I was alone when I cried
I don't have your strength
God knows I wish I did
I wish I had the courage to stop the tears
Yet down my cheeks they slid
I fear that someday you'll be gone
Without a second thought
And I'll be left to pick up the pieces
Whether I like it or not
Sometimes I feel like a fool
For feeling this way
Because I know you'll always be in my life
Even though you're not here today
All the memories that we have
Bring a smile to my face
And I feel a spark of spreading warmth
Taking over this cold place
And I realize we have to expand
And we have to grow
But through it all
We won't lose each other
And that makes me happy to know.
