You Never Knew My Mind (Johnny Cash: Forever Words)

I know you feel the way I change,
 But you can't change the way I feel
 Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
 One of a kind
 And I think someway you'll make it
 Though you don't know how to take it
 Sometimes you're a stranger to me
 One of a kind
 There were times of lots of laughter
 And you felt you understood
 We were carefree, open and honest
 Loving easy, kind and true
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 You never really knew my mind
 You never really knew my mind
 My silence holds the secrets when
 I answer but don't answer
 You did not see me well enough
 To recognize the signs
 You didn't want to notice
 Or know that it was over
 I did not see you well enough
 To recognize the signs
 And there were times of lots of laughter
 And you felt you understood
 We were carefree, open and honest
 Loving easy, kind and true
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 Then you saw the changes painfully
 And you knew, you never really knew my mind
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
 And sometimes you're a stranger to me
 Sometimes, maybe all the time
 You never really knew my mind
 I never really knew your mind
 
 I know you feel the way I change,
 But you can't change the way I feel
 Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
 One of a kind
 And I think someway you'll make it
 Though you don't know how to take it
 Sometimes you're a stranger to me
 One of a kind
 There were times of lots of laughter
 And you felt you understood
 We were carefree, open and honest
 Loving easy, kind and true
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 You never really knew my mind
 You never really knew my mind
 My silence holds the secrets when
 I answer but don't answer
 You did not see me well enough
 To recognize the signs
 You didn't want to notice
 Or know that it was over
 I did not see you well enough
 To recognize the signs
 And there were times of lots of laughter
 And you felt you understood
 We were carefree, open and honest
 Loving easy, kind and true
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 Then you saw the changes painfully
 And you knew, you never really knew my mind
 And I suppose you never doubted
 That we were all together fine
 Sometimes I'm a stranger to you
 And sometimes you're a stranger to me
 Sometimes, maybe all the time
 You never really knew my mind
 I never really knew your mind
