The Somebody I Never Knew
He left me
Walked away
Threw it out the window
Never looked back
And to this day
I look back
Over my shoulder
Looking for you
A face I've never seen
But dream about
Every night
I'm wasting my time
Missing you
All the damn time
I'm chasing a faceless dream
But I can't stop
Don't know how to unlove you
I'm seeing things
That aren't there
And I don't feel it
When I hit the ground
Reaching for you
You were never there
Even if I can feel you
Everywhere
All around me
Inside of me
They don't understand
Why I hold on
And neither do I
But I do
I hold on to you
As hard as I can
Squeeze my eyes shut
Nice and tight
And I wonder
Where you are tonight
I'm wasting my time
All the damn time
Missing you
But I can't help it
Don't know how to let you go
I don't want to know
I don't need to know
Why you couldn't stay
Let me go
But I miss you
My faceless dream
The dream I chase
Been chasing
Since I was a little girl
Chasing you
Because I miss you
The somebody
I never knew
