I saw you from afar

You smiled at me

But nothing then prepared me

For what was to be

I regret not having told you

How I felt

But now it's no use at all

It's just too late



And I'm living my life on my own

Nobody knows what I've been through

Nobody cares

Cause I'm living my life on my own

Lonely place to be I know

But nobody cares for me



All those years that I loved you

And hoped you did too

But I was just too frightened

To make the first move

It's not that I'm a coward

But I had so much to lose

At least I had your friendship

Didn't want to lose it too



And I'm living my life on my own

Nobody knows what I've been through

Nobody cares

Cause I'm living my life on my own

Lonely place to be I know

But nobody cares for me



Yeah I'm living my life on my own

Nobody knows what I've been through

Nobody cares

Cause I'm living my life on my own

Lonely place to be I know

But nobody cares for me
