Wish I'd told her how I felt, then maybe she'd be here right now, but Instead I pretended I'm glad you went away These four walls closing more everyday And I'm dyin' inside And nobody knows it but me Like a clown I put on a show The pain is real even if nobody knows And I'm cryin' inside And nobody knows it but me Why didn't I say, the things I needed to say How could I let my angel get away Now my world is just a tumblin' down I can say it so clearly, but you're nowhere around The nights are lonely, the days are so sad And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had And I'm missin' you And nobody know it but me I carry a smile when I'm broken in two And I'm nobody without someone like you I'm tremblin' inside And nobody knows it but me I lie awake it's a quarter past three I'm screamin' at night if I thought you'd hear me Yeah, my heart is callin' you And nobody knows it but me How blue can I get, you could ask my heart But like a jigsaw puzzle it's been torn all apart A million words couldn't say just how I feel A million years from now you know I'll be lovin' you still The nights are lonely the days are so sad And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had And I'm missin' you And nobody knows it but me Yeah, Ohh, uhh, whoa, omom Nobody, nobody, but me Tomorrow morning I'm hittin' the dusty road Gonna find you where ever, ever you might go And I'm gonna unload my heart And hope you come back to me Yeah, sad when the nights are lonely The nights are lonely, the days are so sad And I just keep thinkin' about the love that we had And I'm missin' you And nobody knows it but me
