I could stay all night
just watching you
I could spend my life
just loving you
But I know that I'd
never go through
I've bled a thousand knives
and you never knew
Chorus:
I never told you;
you never knew
I'll never hold you
Cause I'm too,
late
And I'll hate, myself till
I don't care
Waiting for the kiss that isn't there
I can stare the sun down
but not you
I can't make a sound
in front of you
You spin me round
inside it's true
With you I'm bound
but you never knew
Chorus:
I never told you;
you never knew
I'll never hold you
Cause I'm too,
late
And I'll hate, myself till
I don't care
Waiting for the kiss that isn't there
Bridge:
I sang a song for you
but you never heard
Now it's just space
and empty words
I waited for the world
to wait for me
but you've moved on
in reality
My heart's too torn and my mind's on crack
My soul's telling me to get you back
But there was never anything to return to
Cause after all these years you still never knew
I never told you;
you never knew
I'll never hold you
Cause I'm too,
late
And I'll hate, myself till
I don't care
Waiting for the kiss that isn't there
