she was from the other side of town a place where skin like mine just ain t around a place of unwritten laws and ancient ways where no one dares to stray but as our destiny s were laughin some how we came to be close friends and now i m haunted by this crazy secret that s got me cryin till the end how much i wanted how i needed to let my feelings show how much my heart overflowed she ll never know how much i loved her i couldn t hurt her so i had to let her go how much it tortures my soul she ll never know everytime she looked into my eyes i knew that all she wanted was a sign ohh but that was the one thing i couldn t do cause of all the hell they d put her through they would cast her aside forever and i could never watch her be disowned there s just no way i won t put her through it and that s why she ll never know it hurt so bad to be denied a reason there is no reason it was too much to keep inside all i could say was good bye
