You Never Wanted Me

[Verse 1]

Wondering and waiting, my back against the wall

Not a word that passed between us comes to call

Just your shadow on the window and your step on down the hall

You never wanted me, babe, you never knew me at all

[Verse 2]

I haven't any picture to set before my eyes

Nothing to blame when the blues start to rise

Just the memory of laughter and the living out of lies

And if I could change my ways, babe, you'd never have said goodbye

[Verse 3]

If you ever get the time, baby, please think on me

It's a lock that can't be broken and there isn't any key

And I'm only in your mind, only you can set me free

You can't hurt me anymore, babe, and that isn't hard to see

[Verse 4]

Someday, someone will leave you and I know you'll feel the same

You'll mark it down to memory and the dream that never came

Well, there are no answers given when love is just a game

You never wanted me, babe, and now I feel the same
