You Never Knew Songtext
von HAIM

It was a weight on my shoulders
A strain on my back
But I love to have you, right there by my side
You couldn′t take it
You couldn't take it

It used to be, when we were alone
We shared such beautiful moments
But lately, it′s been such a mess
You couldn't take it
You couldn't take it

Go on and say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew what was good for you
Don′t keep me waiting
Say the words that you′re too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you


I need to hear you say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew what was good for you
Don't keep me waiting
Say the words that you′re too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you

I came home to see you, you weren't around
Excuses were one right after the other
You couldn′t take it
You couldn't take it

You woke up from another dream
Another fight you didn′t mean
Still, time after time
I came running to get you
You couldn't take it
You couldn't take it

Go on and say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew what was good for you
Don′t keep me waiting
Say the words that you′re too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you


I need to hear you say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew what was good for you
Don't keep me waiting
Say the words that you′re too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you

You couldn't take it
Another heart, another day
So much time was thrown away
You couldn′t take it
You know I love to be in love
You couldn't take it
So tired of trying to show you
I worked so hard

Go on and say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew what was good for you
Ooh, don′t keep me waiting
Say the words that you're too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you

I need to hear you say it
Was my love too much for you to take?
I guess you never knew (oh, baby) what was good for you
Ooh, don't keep me waiting
Say the words that you′re too scared to say
I guess you never knew what was good for you

I guess you never knew
I guess you never knew what was good for you
I guess you never knew
I guess you never knew what was good for you
I guess you never knew
I guess you never knew what was good for you
I guess you never knew
I guess you never knew what was good for you
