We Always Knew Better

Why did I fall for you,
Why did you fall for me,
That we could only be 
When we were together,
And we always knew better.

No promises were made,
None were broken,
No commitments for us,
No future to build thereafter
Because we always knew better.

You told me you always wanted, 
To be with me and be there
I wanted to be there for you too
Be together till we could be,
But we always knew better.

We spent hours together,
Talking about our future together
What it could be like for us
It would be beautiful and amazing
But we always knew better.

No expectations from each other,
Still wanted more from each other,
We tried our best to be together
for as long as we could be 
But we always knew better.
