There was a time not long ago When my life was so easy Ran into a woman who needed love She never wanted to release me You fall for me more and more I turn you away How am I to know that you're in pain? Down that long face your tears will flow The more you keep telling yourself That no one will ever know 'Cause I'm the one that your hide I'm the secret that you keep inside You live with a knife in your heart I'm the one that you hide I'm the reason that you cry I never wanted to be the one No where to run no where to hide You always know how you can reach me You made up a fantasy you made up your mind You made up excuses just to see me You fall for me more and more I turn you away How am I to know that you're in pain? Down that long face your tears will flow The more you keep telling yourself That no one will ever know 'Cause I'm the one that your hide I'm the secret that you keep inside You live with a knife in your heart I'm the one that you hide I'm the reason that you cry I never wanted to be the one No. I never wanted to be the one How can I understand your emotions Why can't I feel the heat from the flame Why should I even care When there's nothing really there Why do I get the blame When there's gonna be hell to pay 'cause I'm the one 'Cause I'm the one that your hide I'm the secret that you keep inside You live with a knife in your heart Yeah I'm the one that you hide I'm the reason that you cry I never wanted to be the one No I never wanted No I never wanted to be the one I never needed I never wanted to be the one And I never treated you wrong I never wanted to be the one
