 I knew you  once, you never  knew me then.
 Afraid to ever say  I wanted  to be friends,
 but now the years have passed,  you're far  away.
 But suddenly I feel  I'm not  the same.
 The walls are breaking  down, I think  I'm crackin'  up,
 I look around, everything's  too  much...
 And the world  is spinning  much too fast,
 well I can hardly  catch my breath  and I just hope  that this will  last.
 The  world is slipping  from my  grasp,
 I'm looking 'round to find  the girl  I left behind,
 you were the best  I never had.
 Remember when  I saw  you in the hall?
 You passed right by my  stare, not noticing  at all.
 If I had the guts,  I'd catch  your glance,
 but I am just the boy  without  a chance.
 The walls are breaking  down, I think  I'm crackin'  up,
 I look around, everything's  too  much...
 And the world  is spinning  much too fast,
 well I can hardly  catch my breath  and I just hope  that this will  last.
 The  world is slipping  from my  grasp,
 I'm looking 'round to find  the girl  I left behind,
 you were the best  I never had.
 You're the best  I never  had
 And the world  is spinning  much too fast,
 well I can hardly  catch my breath  and I just hope  that this will  last.
 The  world is slipping  from my  grasp,
 I'm looking 'round to find  the girl  I left behind,
 you were the best  I never had.
 You're the best  I never  had.
 You're the  best I never  had.
 I'm looking  'round to find  the  girl I left behind,
 you were the best  I never had.
