You'll Never Know
Tony Osborne And His Orchestra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You'll never know just how much I miss you
You'll never know just how much I care
And if I tried, I still couldn't hide my love for you
You ought to know, for haven't I told you so

A million or more times?
You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer

If there is some other way to prove that I love you

I swear I don't know how
You'll never know if you don't know now
(You went away and my heart went with you
I speak your name in my every prayer)

If there is some other way to prove that I love you
I swear I don't know how

You'll never know if you don't know now
You'll never know if you don't know now

You'll never know just how much I miss you
I miss you more than you can ever imagine

I may have expressed my love for you countless times, but it still feels like it isn't enough

I feel incomplete without you, my heart is with you wherever you are

I speak your name in my every prayer
You are always on my mind and I pray for you constantly

I honestly don't know what more I can do to prove my love for you

You'll never know if you don't know now
If you don't realize my love for you now, you may never realize it
