You don't know me

By: Gizella Hartnick

How can you say that things are not the same anymore
How can you say that we are not meant to be
How can you judge our future
When we share but half a past?

You never saw my eyes looking at you while you were sleeping
you never picked me a wilting daisy
you never ate candy-floss with me
you never kissed me unexpectedly

You walked away when I cried...
You never considered I only needed your shoulder
you took it for granted that
I'd always forgive and forget whenever you lied

Who nursed me when I was sick
Who told me I looked pretty
And who broke my heart in two
Who said "I can't go on loving you?"

Now how can you judge our future
when we share but half a past
how can you say we ain't meant to be
when you don't even know me?

Say it out loud
not with excuses so lame
it's not as if it's going
to 'cause me much more pain
You don't know me
that is plain to see
That's the only reason why I will agree
That we are definitely not meant to be...
