I Couldn't Show You

You brush across my hand
Paralyzed I stand
Who had guessed that they would
Fall so fast?

You and your pedestal
With no regrets at all
I fell harder than I
Ever had

And I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show you

Now a new love is here
But still I hold ours dear
It's not easy to forget the past
And if I could I'd pray
For even half a day
To give you everything that
She now has

But I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show you

How many times
How many places
Must I think of you?
How many lies
How many chases
Must I live through?

But what is done is done
And who has won is none
But I'll keep on playing
For the price

Now I looked here and there
But I look everywhere
To find what all along was
In your eyes

And I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show you
I don't know why
I couldn't show
You
