We Never Could Have Seen

Could we ever see?
That things would ever end up this way?
That puppy love, could evolve
Dormant over so many years?
Could we ever see,
Together?

I remember.
The first time I talked with you.
Confided my feelings in you.
How you made me so happy when I saw you.
And when I told you my darkest secret...
No one else knows it.
You're the only one.
You hold a part of my soul.
We could never see all the things
That would happen to us.

But we all know,
Not all loves are to be.
You had no idea I loved you,
But it was so clear to me.
I know you tried,
But you just never cared
About the most important thing to me.

You walked away forever,
And I created a character about you.
In a novel, which as you know,
Is the most important thing to me.
You just didn't care.

I loved you,
But you just didn't care.
I know that we all have to follow our hearts,
and sometimes our hearts,
Don't put us on the same path.

I wish you could see me now.
How far I have come,
How so often I have dreamt of you.
I still stare at you as you walk by,
A million thoughts passing through my head.
And a thin smile crosses my face.
How oddly funny that it is,
That I was torn from you.

I wish I didn't have to look at you,
But you are just too beautiful.

I know you can keep a secret,
You're still the only one.
Still the only one.
Can you keep a secret?
Yes, I know you can.

We never could have seen,
All the things that would change us forever.

We never could have seen.
