lyrics

I once knew you as you wanted me to
Engaged in every way
I matched your footsteps in vain
You twice took my youthful heart with you in stride
Sliding, twisting, tumbling down the mountainside

I am but a human
Luminous and bright

Oh no!
I thought you really really liked me
The way you said I really wanna see you
Kicking up our dust again

And oh sure, you did nice things
Threw parties where I could sing
But every note confirmed what I had known all along
That you and me, we were never meant to be
And all I was in love with now was your song

I am but a human
Luminous and bright
Setting off on a journey
Holding close to get it right

Oh no

Oh no!
I thought you really really liked me
The way you said I really wanna see you
Kicking up our dust again

I tried so hard for you to see me
