Lyrics
In the haze of my aging mind,
Memories awakening, they may not be right,
You slipped through my fingers like sand,
While I stood lost, trying to understand.
You never knew me, not like I wanted,
Behind the smile, there's a heart that's haunted.
In the silence of time, the truth runs deep,
Never showing the true story in life complete.
We could have felt love, dreaming in our eyes,
Unknown beauty does fade with the blue skies.
So I built my walls high, never to let them show,
Now I'm left here wishing that you could have known.
You never knew me, not like I wanted,
Behind the smile, there's a heart that's haunted.
In the silence of time, the truth runs deep,
Never showing the true story in life complete.
Sadness are the pages we never did write,
The dreams left unspoken on those lonely nights.
Though you never knew me, I've learned to be free
To live another life creating my destiny.
You never knew me, not like I wanted,
Behind the smile, there's a heart that's haunted.
In the silence of time, the truth runs deep,
Never showing the true story in life complete.
