Unrequited Love

Verse 1

Have you ever known unrequited love?
It happened to me, some time ago
I didn't see her the way she saw me
She was so fine, but wasn't to be

instrumental interlude

Verse 2

Time after time, I let it be known
Time after time, she wouldn't take note
Oh Love can be cruel, and boy do I know
Cause there came a day, when everything changed

Chorus

I started to feel, I started to love, I started to yearn for what we could have
so I ran to her side, to tell her the news, but it was too late as my moment had gone
She told me, there was someone else

She's with someone else

Verse 3

So now that I've loved and now that I've lost I know how she felt
and at what cost

Final Chorus

It took me so long to get over the hurt
I poured out my feelings writing so many songs
to wash out the grief of what might have been
But it wasn't enough until the moment it was

Then it was in the past, found the strength to move on
After my role was cast, cause I'd taken too long
Suddenly now it's changed and she's come back to me
Asking if I still care, cause he's been taken to soon

Tragicly he's no longer with us
I said no, I can't take that role now
I can't take that role
I can't take that role
I won't take that role now

Outro

Have you ever known, unrequited love
It happened to me
a long time ago
