I Wish You Had Known

I woke up to hear the news
you're gone for good it's true
I didn't know what to do
apart from cry

I tried to get on with the day
but everything reminded me
of the good times, the bad
all the times that we shared
are just a memory

and I don't get it
I thought that you were happy and fine
I guess I was wrong
that's always been a fault of mine
am I to blame for not being there by your side?
you can stop hiding now
reappear

I wish you had known
somebody loved you
I wish that you had known
somebody cared
I wish you had known
that someone to talk to
was standing right here
I wish you had known

I struggle to understand
the pain you felt
the reasons you were mad
this sucks to wake up
go back
I would've tried to save you

and I don't get it
I thought that you were happy and fine
I guess I was wrong
that's always been a fault of mine
am I to blame for not being there by your side?
you can stop hiding now
and reappear

I wish you had known
somebody loved you
I wish that you had known
somebody cared
I wish you had known
that someone to talk to
was standing right here

you got no more pain now
all the pain is ours
every single day I'm left with hurt and scars
leaving us was selfish
and it hurts more than you will ever know
I wish you had known

I wish you had known
somebody loved you
I wish you had known
somebody cared
I wish you had known
that someone to talk to was
standing right here

I wish you had known
I loved you
I loved you
