Lyrics
I didn't know were you the one to love me?
you didn't show your heart's opinion of me
and when we had met I kept my cool
I didn't want to look a fool
so I played a cautious game
and though our hands they never touched each other
we had no plans to be(come) teenage lovers
but now we're older and mature
I still haven't found a cure
for the heartache and the pain
BRIDGE
sometimes I think of what might have been
with you by my side every day
the life we might have shared in my dream
...but it turned out another way
time passes by I still see your face before me
and I wonder why it hasn't faded for me
I long to hold you and it's true
it's no secret now that I am still in love you
