What I Didn't Know


I complain 
When nothing's even wrong 
And you're ashamed 
Cause you're not quite that strong 

That's when I said I'll need 
More than you can offer me 
I miss your face as you can tell 
I hope my absence makes you we|l 

Cause what I didn't know 
Is I was killing you 
I said a lot of things that I didn't mean to 
But I am older now 
And I am sorry too 
So I can wait awhile 
If it brings me back to you 

I am shy 
I never speak a word 
And you are numb 
From all the things you never heard 

That's when I said I'll need 
More than you can offer me 
But now I own an empty space 
And I can't fill it with your face 

Cause what I didn't know" 
Is I was killing you 
I said a lot of"things that I didn't mean to 
But I am older now 
And I believe in you 
So I can wait awhile 
If it brings me back to you
