Lyrics
Something of beauty, yes a friendship that could last
We laughed and cried but it scared me so to ever give my heart
Though I truly did not want it all to end
It seemed the best way, you said you could no longer be just a friend
I sent you away, now I need you back to stay
I never knew lonely
I never knew lonely
Though I've been alone before
I never knew lonely
I never knew lonely
Till you closed the door
Now in silence so stony
Empty days before me
I realize I never knew lonely
I never knew lonely
I can't put the blame on any others, it's my fault that you're with someone else and I can't stand the thought
Looking back I see I loved you all along
But would never admit to feelings that were so strong
So I crushed your pride
Now it's my turn to cry
It hurts to see how happy you made your new love
It could have been me
