Complicated Songtext
von Boole

Did you know I think of you
The times we had I know they′re through
These years have passed erased my face
I drank to hide my fears
Never made intentions clear
Did you think that you would be replaced?

I thought of you in those times
You the girl I'd want for life
Now the time for that has passed away
Looking back across those years
I wonder if it helped to hear
I was going to marry you someday

How could I say I needed you
When I didn′t even know what you wanted from me?
How could I tell you what it meant
When I didn't even know if you'd ever love me?


This resonance we shared
Is long gone, have you cared?
I guess our chance was lost to fate
If you knew it, if you could
Feel it slip as things had stood
Did you feel you′d been betrayed?

I wasn′t much of a man then
Didn't know what I′d never meant
I seemed little astray

At times you look at me
I hope I still see
Something making me feel less ashamed

How could I say I needed you
When I didn't even know what you wanted from me?
How could I tell you what it meant
When I didn′t even know if you'd ever love me?

Now you know I think of you
But now I seldom do
Those thoughts got in the way
I regret these words I had
Obsession has nothing to add
I will not be living out clichés

I think of you less each time
When the past still comes to mind
Does it seem just all a waste?


My answer′s very clear
You weren't too concerned then, dear
I was a fool to give chase

How could I say I needed you
When I didn't even know what you wanted from me?
How could I tell you what it meant
When I didn′t even know if you′d ever love me?

Why are you still in my thoughts?
Complicated, cold and lovely
Can I get beyond regret?
You're no longer thinking of me
