How many times?

How many times did I open my arms, but you walked away?
How many times did I open my heart and you just said "okay"?
What did she have that I didn't know about?
Maybe I had to leave here and go away.

What if I told you that I loved you?
I think you'd laugh at me and make me feel blue.
What should I have done to make you attentive?
I guess I would have needed a clue.

It was always me, who talked about love,
but it was always "she", who you always spoke of.
I think I could have done more for you,
but it was always you, who wasn't in love.

You always thought that I was shy.
You didn't know that I always fly.
When I saw you or even talked to you
it was me, who always flow up to the sky.

When you first said "Hi!" to me,
I thought I'd be yours and you'd be for me.
How could I be so stupid in my life,
because you were just a dream for me.

When you said "Bye!" at the end,
I told myself "It wasn't you I knew as a friend."
How could I be so silly in my life,
because it was a lifetime I have spent.

I fell in love with that guy
who caused when I cry.
I told myself "Was it that life you wanted?"
But I just closed my eyes and died.
