He Doesn't Know

If you ever pass by where i used to live
And should you bump in to the man i was with
Back when i didn't know what to believe
Please, will you tell him from me

That i loved him with every beat of my heart
I'd tremble with longing when we were apart
Oh, i'd ache to pull him in close
I don't think he knows

The last thing i heard he was losing his job
I guess they'd found out that he rarely turned up
He hated it there only stayed for me
Please, will you make him believe

That i always thought you should follow your dreams
However hard and uncertain it seems
I'd have loved him whatever he chose
I don't think he knows

I lives grew apart, it's been just over a year
For reasons i can't really tell you about here
Love wasn't nearly enough in the end
Please, will you tell him again

That i hurt myself more than i ever hurt him
I wasn't as distant and cold as i seemed
I was lost all the way into my bones
I don't think he knows

When the dust had settled he moved on as well
He found a new girl that he loved, i could tell
And my mind started wandering jealously
Please, will you ask him from me

If really he thought that i was the one
Or were we just sharing some time on the run
Did he love me with peace and with hope
I don't really know…
