I Never Knew

Looking back, you were someone who's full of grace
Someone who's as carefree as a faerie
Someone who's always a child at heart
Someone who never gets tired of sharing a good laugh

All suddenly that free-spirited you, has turned head at me
Never thought there is that passionate side of you
That someone who would look at me in a special way
But friendship like ours is too strong to feel the same way

I never knew you would open your heart to me
The only place where I am safely kept alone by you
I never knew you would keep showing your love
A love that's never held the way you wanted

I never knew I'd learn to see the deepness in you
I never knew I'd see the rareness in you
I never knew each day I'd see you running across my mind
I never knew you'd add more beats to my heart

Someday, I know you'll live only in my memory
A memory that will ever be written in my soul
A thing in the past that will always leave a mark in the future
A future that will always hold someone who has never been mine
