That hurts Your baby told you it was over And I'm just a friendly shoulder you can cry on While I ache to take you into my arms Of all the dreams in all the world There's nothing worse Than meant to be and you don't see That I wanted to be the one to make your knees weak Your hands shake I wanted to be the one that you woke up to Held on to But I never knew that touch And you'll never know how much That hurts It's not fair I have to be the great pretender As if I don't remember all those sad prayers That sounded good but got me nowhere Of all the jokes in all the world How sad is this To be so close and not let it show That I wanted to be the one to make your knees weak Your hands shake I wanted to be the one that you woke up to Held on to But I never knew that touch And you'll never know how much That hurts Oh I wanted to be the one to make your knees weak Your hands shake I wanted to be the one that you woke up to Held on to But I never knew that touch And I wanted you so But I have to let go And you'll never know how much that hurts
