Never Had You
I was the quiet boy
Stared at you all the time
You were the one who made me
Feel all weak inside
Thought I was clever
But cool? Never, never
And with one look
I was broken for ever-
And the years go by
I watched your dreams die
You grow old while I
Try to touch the sky
And the years go by
And I tried and tried
But still I never had you.
Cinema taught me well
As the years rolled by
Told me that there were a lot like me
Lost inside
Told me that I could do anything
I tried
Told me that love was all powerful:
Fat lies
And the years go by
‘Nother hundred lies
Childhood pushed aside
Goodbye dreams, goodbye
And the years go by
And I wondered why
And still I never had you
Still I never had you
Saw you again in the street
Yesterday, alone
Gave you a smile but you didn’t
Even say hello
And when I woke up this morning,
I cried
Knowing that I had lost you for the
Last time
And the years go by
And I cried and cried
But the years go by
And the sadness dies
And the years go by
And I don’t know why
But still I never had you
Still I never had you
Well I’m glad! I never had you.
