Did You Know

Did you think you were a fleeting thought;
just something to pass the time?
Don't you know you touched my life,
or did it not show?

With each word you'd say you'd build me up 
You'd do it in such a kind way.
Did you not know that you touched my life?
I'd search for you everyday.

I'd feel a smile grace my face,
It did it everytime.
I'd see you, and joy filled me up.
But to you there was no reason, so why?

Did you not know?
Did it not show?
But nothing between us grew.
what was it all for?

Did you not know you touched my life?
Did it now show?
Why did knowing each other go on by?
Why did it not grow?

To this day I don't think I could be just friends.
Did you not know you changed my life?
I don't think I ever lost what was you said never began
I see that you have a wife.

Did you not know you touched my life
You changed my life,
So why did you when you had a wife?
