I want you to see, I Want you to know
how much I suffered, how I loved you so.
When he held you close, when he pulled you near,
When he said all those words, you wanted to hear.
I wanted to be him, cause those words were mine,
To say to you, till the end of time.
Cause it was always you, I bled for you.
I waited for you, how I loved you so.
And as I count the days, days till your mine,
I see the truth dawn, I had no time.
You were looking so clearly, straight through me.
Your eyes were on someone else, and you never saw me.
You never saw the tears I cried, I didn't tell.
Never sought attention, never show my hell.
You didn't see what I destroyed, What I took.
This could be different, fixed with just one look.
I almost lost every reason, I had to live,
I lost that one thing, the first thing you can give.
And to think, to see, to hear, like never before.
Children were on your mind, and you looked so sure.
Cause you wanted them so, and with him I know.
I watched it every day, I still have the scars to show.
You are my life, and my everything.
You are what I aim for, you are where I begin.
But for so much longer than you, you didn't see me,
I didn't exist, and we could never be.
The day I laid eyes on you, I knew.
Its a shame you didn't, cause I loved you true.
Still I count the days, days till your mine,
I see the truth now, I had no time.
You were looking so clearly, straight through me.
Your eyes were on someone else, and you never saw me.
Still my heart bleeds for you, broken by every tear.
Its a million tears I cried, every day, year by year.
I died a thousand times, just watching you there,
I begged and begged for just one second you might care.
Credit where credit's due, John.
