Did you know⦠that I always wanted to love you?
But I⦠didnât know how to love anyone.
That I was just too distant inside⦠to ever reach out across that void.
That I was just pretending⦠my acting skills were my toy⦠and my tool.
To get along in this world, ah honey, to survive the slings and arrowsâ¦
To walk the streets without screaming⦠to navigate the narrows.
And did you know⦠that I use to watch you while you were sleepingâ¦
Laying there so precious in the moonlight⦠the moonlight⦠and Iâ¦
Use to think to myself⦠what a lucky man I am.
And did you know⦠that I held my head up so highâ¦
That day we held hands in the park?â¦
Seems like such a small thing⦠my god what they take for grantedâ¦
But it was just everything, everything to me.
And did you know⦠that I always knew⦠that weâd break apartâ¦
And youâd run along toâ¦
A real live boy?
