I knew you once You never knew me then Afraid to ever say, I wanted to be friends And now the years have passed, you're far away And suddenly I feel I'm not the same
The walls are breaking down I think I'm cracking up I look around Now everything's too much
And the world is spinning much too fast Well I can hardly catch my breath and I just hope that this will last
The world is slipping from my grasp I'm looking round to find, the girl I left behind You were the best I never had
Remember when I saw you in the hall You passed right by my stare, not noticing at all And if I'd had the guts, I'd catch your glance But I am just the boy without a chance
The walls are breaking down I think I'm cracking up I look around Now everything's too much
And the world is spinning much too fast Well I can hardly catch my breath and I just hope that this will last
The world is slipping from my grasp I'm looking round to find, the girl I left behind You were the best I never had.
