How you are,
i may never know.
I've known you for years,
as i hold you in my arms.
when really we are never near,
is what we have to hear.
you've told me things,
things that i dreaded to hear,
for i will only know,
only know what i really want to hear.
those words that you speak will never be near,
when really all you're saying,
is bringing me to tears.
you say that you're doing right,
and that everything will be alright,
when really it's you that's not right.
can't you see,
see what you are doing to me,
when really it's not all about me.
i care about you too much,
too much to see you hurt yourself this much.
don't you not get it ,
not get it at all?
really what i am trying to say,
is that how you are,
i may never know,
for it is i who you'll never know.
you're hurting yourself,
which is hurting me,
can't you see?
i really want to say,
say that I'm happy for you,
but deep down inside,
i know that's not so true.
maybe if things hadn't change,
things would be the same,
the same between you and me.
if i didn't move,
would it still be the same?
i just wanted to say,
say that i love you in every way,
but sometimes i have to set you straight,
for my fate is your fate.
please stop this,
stop this pain,
i care about you too much,
to let you be this vein.
how are you,
i will never know,
I've known you for years,
you're just bringing me to tears!
