You never knew

You never knew how much you mattered
or how much i really cared
you never knew why i said what i said
i know i wasnt being fair

you never knew why i lied
it's because i didn't want to be hurt
i'm too scared to let you in
and i'm too scared to show you what you're worth

you never knew how much i cried
when you found someone new
i locked myself in my room
and all i thought of was you

you never knew that i wanted to say
"wait!" , i had it in my will
"wait for me, i'm catching up!"
"wait! i love you still!"

you never really knew how much i love you
or how much you truly mean
i took you too much for granted
i didn't want my love to be seen

but now you're gone, and i want to know
what would happen if i were to fall?
would you be there to catch me?
would you be there at all?
