It's not that you might leave me lonely

I know I could cope if your heart became a ghost

I know what to do when I'm on my own

It's the not knowing, that hurts, the most.

It's not that if you told me you met someone better

Or if you had a to break your promise, break your oath

If you prefer to feel some others touch

It's the not knowing, that hurts, the most.

In your silence, I sense a thousand words

Your eyes are sad but you still smile

You're right beside me, but are you even here?

It's the not knowing, that hurts, the most

It's the not knowing, that hurts, the most.

I'm sure you meant all that you said, at the time

I believe you can't be made of stone

We both know it's ok to change your mind

It's just the not knowing, that hurts, the most.

And in your silence, I sense a thousand words

You're eyes are sad but you still smile

You're right beside me, but are you even here?

It's just the not knowing, that hurts, the most.

I can tell, your head is somewhere else

I can read the signs but I need help

I can take your truth

Tell me

Tell me what I know

Don't be a coward boy

Let me free just, let me go.

We haven't said it but I know it

So hold me one last time before you go

You gave me so much to remember, baby

It was just the not knowing, that hurt the most.
