Never thought you knew me
Never thought of you with me
Always fighting in the dark
Before

Never got to tell you
I don't know what I mean to you
No need to explain
Anymore

But I'd cry
I would die if I lost you
And I'd cry

When I think about us
It's only me that comes between us
It's only me 
That closes the door

But I'd cry
I would die if I lost you
And I'd cry

And you know you held me up
Held me to the sun
When I was yours
And I know I let you down
Let you down
The day that I was gone

But I'd cry
I would die if I lost you
And I'd cry
But I'd cry
I would die if I lost you
And I'd cry
