You Never Wanted Me

Wondering and waiting

My back against the wall

Not a word that passed between us

Comes to call

Just your shadow on the window

And your step on down the hall

You never wanted me, babe

You never knew me at all

I haven't any picture

To set before my eyes

Nothing to blame

When the blues start to rise

Just the memory of laughter

And the living out of lies

And if I could change my ways, babe

You'd never have said goodbye

If you ever get the time, baby

Please think on me

It's a lock that can't be broken

And there isn't any key

And I'm only in your mind

Only you can set me free

You can't hurt me anymore, babe

And that isn't hard to see

Someday, someone will leave you

And I know you'll feel the same

You'll mark it down to memory

And the dream that never came

Well there are no answers given

When love is just a game

You never wanted me, babe

And now I feel the same
