I never knew your Saturday
Or your two a.m., or your last goodbye
I never knew your final words
Too insincere to honestly reply
I never knew your easily swayed
Your one last try [*note: often sung as "Your don't
ask why"]
I never knew your long weekend
Or your passing through, or your on my way
I never knew your obvious
Your predictable or your what I can not say
I never knew your hidden concerns your I can’t stay
I said
I don’t
Know you
And you don’t know me
And we’re so happy
I never knew your long ago
Or your once in time or your fairy tale
I never knew your heroine
Or your figurine or your porcelain detail
I never knew your story untold
One night unveiled
I said
I don’t
Know you
And you don’t know me
And we’re so happy
She walked into
This tragedy
And she never looked at me
I always lied
I’d watch her cry
And not ask why
I never knew your Saturday
Or your two a.m., or your last goodbye
I never knew your final words
Too insincere to honestly reply
I never knew your easily swayed
Your one last try
I said
I don’t
Know you
And you don’t know me
And we’re so happy
