I Guess I'll Never Know Lyrics - Clawfinger - Clawfinger

After all these precious years you chose to just give in 

Why did you leave so many things undone 

I only scratched the surface of the thoughts you had within 

and for me your life had just begun 

Why did you think that you were never good enough to give 

when you accepted me right from the start 

I never saw the side of you that didn't want to live 

and I miss you from the bottom of my heart 

What was it that you never told a soul about yourself 

what kind of thoughts were buried inside 

was there really no one there you thought would understand 

or was the only barrier your pride 

with so much love around you I just wish you'd loved yourself 

'cos no one here can ever take your place 

you were someone special and my words just can't express 

how much I miss the warmth of your embrace 

Why did you just give in 

why did you just give up and let it go 

I guess I'll never know 

It's hard to see you disappear without a real good bye 

there's so many things I wish I'd said 

But all the little things you did that made it all worthwhile 

meant more than all the tears you ever shed 

You always seemed so happy but I guess no one can tell 

what goes on inside a persons mind 

you loved your children dearly and you did your very best 

and someone new like you is hard to find 

Chorus 

All the things you went through for your children every day 

and all the sacrifices that you made 

were worth much more than anything that wealth could ever buy 

and now that love can never be repaid 

In the end I guess you couldn't take it anymore 

so you closed your eyes and swallowed all your pain 

I know that you've done the same so many times before 

but all the questions in my mind remain
