Lyrics
Never Knew You Had it in You
Seems like nothing I did was ever good enough
I could never give you something that you never could touch
All of the nights I tried to get close to you
Till i dealt you that fatal blow and then you let through
I don't wanna beg for scraps of your tainted love
If it takes me to leave for you to ever give it up
A man like you is not supposed to cry
But I can see the tears in your eyes
And I would be the one to catch you when you fall
You lay your body down and offer me your empty arms but never nothing of your soul
You never let that go
Still I never knew that you had it in you
To cry so hard and to finally learn to lose control
There must have been some kind of loving some kind of discontent
Some kind of danger behind the well meaning and good intent
Heaven forbid that anyone here would realise
That wreck you protect behind the disguise
Chorus
Still I never knew that you had it in you
Still I never knew that I could reach you
You never let me in
and if it's just a another case of foolish pride before you fall
You should hear that wake up call
And if you ever really think you could have it in you
To search inside and maybe give me something more
