you never knew

you never knew 

you never knew that i loved you
i watched you make your every move
you never knew my heart was yours
i wrote you love letters every day
you never saw them, they were never sent

you passed me in the hallway at school
i melted into a puddle of awe and bliss
you never knew i dissolved this way 
i went to the mall to smell your perfume 
you never knew i loved the way you smelled

you never saw the image i had of you
i couldn't draw but i drew pictures of you everyday
you never knew i knew your face by heart
i memorized the way your lips curled into a smile
you never knew i loved your smile

you never knew i was so sad when went with him
i wished that was me by your side instead
you never knew how good i'd treat you
i saw him flirt with girls behind your back
you never knew how faithful i would be

you never knew i had a photo of you on my wall
i gazed at your yearbook photos for hours on end
you never knew i took a photo from your brother 
i wished i is was in those photographs with you
you never knew i still dream of your face at night

again

again if i could walk those golden streets again and sing those glad olden songs so sweet again if i could feel those pounding jungle beats again and touch those rumbling thronging beasts again if i could dance those daring double steps again and twirl the girls 'round their swinging hips again if I could swim those clear summer lakes again and float lazily where the cool current takes again if i could sit in playful grade-school seats again and draw where pencil and yellow paper meets again if i could run the asphalt baseball fields again and slap the rubber balls off car windshields again if i could fold daily newspaper sheets again in pre-dawn drowsiness on city streets again if i could gaily play in hot summer rains again and watch the water run into sewer-drains again if i could tackle tough and rumble players again and run through football teams like a laser again if i could frolic in frigid cold and icy snow again and not fear near fro...
