I Guess I'll Never Know - 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

Witch 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

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

Met 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 person’s mind

You loved you children dearly and you did your very best

And someone new like you is hard to find

All the things you went through for you 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 replayed

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 question in my mind remain
