One thing I know for sure 
 I never was a friend to you 
 You know when to know me 
 And you know when to be through 
 You call the shots 
 It's safe to bet that I regret that I 
 Never took the time to get to know you 

 Silence bothers some 
 But it's all that I can do 
 I never really thought about 
 Just what I put you through 
 I'll be around to cover ground 
 I left behind 'cause I 
 Never took the time to get to know you 

 The only thing I have to say for myself 
 I never really learned to deal with life 
 'Cause it's got a funny way of 
 Digging deep inside you until you feel so lost 
 Going too far - you can't stop 

 One thing I know for sure 
 Is that one and one make two 
 And there's no room leftover 
 For me to lie to you 
 I can't explain the way I fear 
 You won't be here 
 'Cause I never took the time to get to know you 
 Never took the time to get to know you 

 The only thing I have to say for myself 
 I never really learned to deal with life 
 'Cause it's got a funny way of 
 Digging deep inside you until you feel so lost 
 Going too far - you can't stop
