I Never Thought You Would

​

Verse 1

You had stopped and I kept going
With no idea how the tide was growing
Waves so high, strong and steep,
And troughs so low, dark and deep,

Verse 2

I saw you struggle, I saw you swim,
I saw you make it to the shore again,
Until a storm stole you from the beach,
Dragging you forever out of reach

Chorus

I’m so sorry for what you went through,
So, so sorry, oh, how I wish you knew,
I’m so sorry I never understood,
I never comprehended,
I never thought you would!
I never thought you would!

Verse 3

Where you are can you see my tears
The doubt I have inside, grows with my fears,
And in my heart I pray, that you will see,
Just how much you will always mean to me.

Chorus

I’m so sorry for what you went through,
So, so sorry, oh, how I wish you knew,
I’m so sorry I never understood,
I never comprehended,
I never thought you would!
I never thought you would!
I swear to God ,
I never thought you would.
