I knew somebody

They were alright

They couldn't love me

And that's just fine

So I stopped calling

He wouldn't answer anyways

I left no message

I would just hope for better days

But they just seem to repeat themselves

As if there's no other way

And I can't seem to remind myself

That I will be okay

I knew somebody

They were alright

They couldn't love me

And that's just fine

You know I'm lying

You know I stay up every night

Just hoping you'd call me

So you can tell me it's alright

Now it's dark

The stars are out

My phone is dead, but I don't need it now

'Cause in your arms

I have no doubt

The words I said don't matter anyhow

I knew somebody

They were alright

They couldn't love me

And that's just fine
