I Guess I'll Never Know


I've put this off for so long, but this is a song I've known for ages and has always made me cry.. Now it holds much more meaning for me than I ever thought it would.. I wanted to share it with those of you that have never heard it, because I think it sums up how I feel and how many of us who knew Brian will feel at the moment..


After all these precious years you chose to just give in
Why did you leave so many things undone

I only scratched the surface of the thoughts you had within
and for me your life had just begun

Why did you think that you were never good enough to give
when you accepted me right from the start

I never saw the side of you that didn't want to live
and I miss you from the bottom of my heart

What was it that you never told a soul about yourself
what kind of thoughts were buried inside

was there really no one there you thought would understand
or was the only barrier your pride

with so much love around you I just wish you'd loved yourself
'cos no one here can ever take your place

you were someone special and my words just can't express
how much I miss the warmth of your embrace

Why did you just give in
why did you just give up and let it go
I guess I'll never know

It's hard to see you disappear without a real good bye
there's so many things I wish I'd said

But all the little things you did that made it all worthwhile
meant more than all the tears you ever shed

You always seemed so happy but I guess no one can tell
what goes on inside a persons mind

you loved your children dearly and you did your very best
and someone new like you is hard to find

Chorus

All the things you went through for your children every day
and all the sacrifices that you made

were worth much more than anything that wealth could ever buy
and now that love can never be repaid

In the end I guess you couldn't take it anymore
so you closed your eyes and swallowed all your pain

I know that you've done the same so many times before
but all the questions in my mind remain
