Lou XCVI - I Know We Both Knew Lyrics

Three months of closing my mind
To thoughts of you living my life
But now you're gone and I don't know why
We kept on living a lie

Now when I think of you
I know that you'd want me to
Get involved, feel something new
It's you I want but I know we both knew

You left me broken on the mend
I couldn't save your daughter
Didn't give us time to pretend
I was just treading water
I guess I'll live my life 'till the end
The way you wanna
And if I see your face again
I know it's forever

It's time to think then it's time to move on
But I can't blink without seeing my fault
Talking shit, making things wrong
I can't feel 'till this feeling's gone

Now what's this just someone you knew
Who's now sat down and wrote a song about you
Well here's five minutes, say what you never knew
Try five years and see what you'd do

You left me broken on the mend
I couldn't save your daughter
Didn't give us time to pretend
I was just treading water
I guess I'll live my life 'till the end
The way you wanna
And if I see your face again
I know it's forever
