"Things I Never Had (Hikaru)"

An illusion, disillusion
A dream that was never mine
I gave everything up for you
And what did I loose, what did I gain
A fantasy, reality
Everyone wants what I have
I’d give it all up just so I
Can have what they have, I’d take the trade

The choices I thought I made
You made them for me
I’m longing for things I never had
I gave up my youth for dreams
That were never mine
I’m longing for things I never had

A partnership, unorthodox
You were always there for me
But not in the natural way
Do you regret it, it’s too late now
You wanted it, and I gave it
The life I live was all for you
I’d give it all up just so I
Can start all over, to get it right

The choices I thought I made
You made them for me
I’m longing for things I never had
I gave up a life I should
Have had all along
I’m longing for things I never had

I made everyone happy
I put a smile on my face so they think I’m happy too
I’ve played this game for so long
I‘ve started to believe that this lie has become my truth

The choices I thought I made
You made them for me
I’m longing for things I never had
I gave up my youth for dreams
That were never mine
I’m longing for things I never had
I gave up a life I should
Have had all along
I’m longing for things I never had
