Joey's POV

When I met you, you were my dream. I just didn't know it.
When you never denied us a couple, I never did either. I just didn't know it.

When I bought you that bracelet, it said more that 'Best Buds'. I just didn't know it.

When you bought me one back, it meant more than I said. I just didn't know it.

When I left, it was my nightmare, and I just didn't know it.

When I came back, you loved me for it. And I loved you back. I just didn't know it.

When I told you about Janice, you looked so hurt. I wanted to take that pain away. I just didn't know it.

We both wanted Kathy. But I only wanted you. I just didn't know it.

When I found you and Monica, I wasn't really happy for you. I just didn't know it.

When you kissed me, I kissed you back. I just didn't know it.

When you told me you were leaving, you broke my heart. I just didn't know it.

When you left, I died. I just didn't know it.

When you told me you were marrying her, you killed me again. I just didn't know it.

When I pronounced you husband and wife, it shattered all that was left of me. I just didn't know it.

When I fell in love with Rachel, it wasn't love. That was yours alone. I just didn't know it.

When I kissed Rachel, I felt nothing. I just didn't know it.

When you told me you were leaving me, I cried. I just didn't know it.

When you left me, for that stupid house, in that stupid suburb, there was nothing left to feel. You'd taken it all with you.

And I just didn't know it.

And now I do. And it's too late.
