Cage - I Never Knew You lyrics

You’re always dying inside that
Much closer to home
On a crowded street corner surrounded
By people all alone
Pain in the heart, rain in the dark
The wound is glum and bitter
She walks around the corners like she
Brought the sun with her
Then everything just brightened up
I couldn’t make this up
My fingers in my eyes as she walked
By like I was waking up in so many words
I couldn’t string a sentence
Together to bother her
I instantly forgot all my plans
And started to follow her

It’s like the sky opened and God
Handed you directly to me
I know it sounds crazy but so is life
I’m sinking and feeling like your heart is
Beating solely for me

Your legs are long and toned
You must be walking home
I love the way your lips move
When you’re talking on your phone
Intoxicating and truly you due
Your impurities
Plague every thought of you while I’m
Trailing you like your security
Lost, we couldn’t know our paths would
Cross but time knew it
Feet sticking out the window
A opportunity climbing through it
Pain for sale, looking to find a new taker
Chance to speak blown
When you looked at me I
Looked in the newspaper

Because the sky opened and God
Handed you directly to me
I know it sounds crazy but so is life
I’m sinking and feeling like your heart is
Beating solely for me

I’m miles out of my way, creepy, I want more
Was gonna turn back but you stuck
Your key in your front door
I’m standing across the street
Stars had aligned us to meet
Standing outside with your
Trash feeling incomplete
My finger aching for your doorbell
Like a random blog
Instead I lurk outside in the
Cold like an abandoned dog
Perish the thought
You should cherish the words that
I got in my mouth
The only words that can truly explain
How I got in your house

Because the sky opened and God
Handed you directly to me
I know it sounds crazy but so is life
I’m sinking and feeling like your heart is
Beating solely for me unlikely, impossible
I couldn’t dream to think it
There’s something happening between us
You can’t deceive
I’m so in over my head I’ve
Learned to breathe in it
Your eyes are screaming and you’re
Saying "no baby" to me
If there was a way out I
Think you would’ve taken it
My hands and arms are the only
Way that you can leave
Face to face for the first time
You feel what I’m feeling
Selfishly no longer breathing because of me
