I wrote you a letter that I never sent
You probably wouldn't have read it anyway
Just out of reach this person that I couldn't touch
With the hope that'd we'd meet in middle one day
What does that say that what I have ain't enough?
What does that say that you left when it all got too tough?
Now it's too late we're past time for regrets
My heart may forgive, but it'll never forget
How can you miss something you never had to begin with?
How can you cry over someone you never got to know?
How can you see what's ahead if you don't turn around to face it?
Yes, how can you miss someone you never got to know?
I built you up so much in my head
You didn't stand a chance to measure up
You shut me out, you turned your back
You couldn't see just how deep it cut
Can you love somebody that you think's a mistake?
Can you call it even when you don't give more than you take?
Little did I know the choice was not up to me
We're way past the point for forced apologies
How can you miss something you never had to begin with?
How can you cry over someone you never got to know?
How can you see what's ahead if you don't turn around to face it?
Yes, how can you miss someone you never got to know?
My friends all ask me what I've done
with the chances that are gone
Why you blamin' me when you're the one?
This is what happens when you run and hide
Now I'm the one who gets to decide
-SoloHow can you miss something you never had to begin with?
How can you cry over someone you never got to know?
How can you see what's ahead if you don't turn around to face it?
Yes, how can you miss someone you never got to know?
