All I wanted was 2cu shine
And to be there when U did
All I wanted was a hand in mine
I had a place where it would fit

I always wondered what was in your head
The way U read my mind
Always wondered what was never said
Each and every time

a-ha

In every word we wrote, in every line
There was a desperate note
We had a contract but never signed
I couldn't get your vote

U saw the sadness in these eyes
That no one ever sees
The bruises hidden here behind the smile
A kind of stiff unease

a-ha

Just when I couldn't get you out of my mind
You start to back away
I always wondered baby, one more time.
It wouldn't hurt, would it?

All I wanted was to see you shine
