If You Knew

If you knew the way I was feeling
If you only knew my thoughts
Then maybe
Just maybe
We would have never grown apart

If you knew how much I missed you
How I missed your kisses upon my cheeks
Then maybe
Just maybe
You would finally believe me

To want and be denied
To yearn but never retrieve
I waited and waited for our love to bloom
But it is dying on the branch as we breath

If you knew how I hurt inside
If you only knew how much I didn’t want to let you go
Then maybe
Just maybe
You wouldn’t have pushed me and forced me to go
