  • There is nothing wrong with me
    There's nothing wrong with you
    Maybe we're just blind to see
    Each other's point of view

    Nobody knows what we had
    Nobody knows what we had

    You could do much better
    You could do much worse than me
    I could have walked right out on you
    There was nothing stopping me

    Nobody knows what we had
    Oh, nobody knows what we had

    We were running out of passion, we were running out of time
    There's a face to fit the future, there's a face to fit the crime
    Now the truth is on the table and the ghost is plain to see
    There's nothing wrong with you or me, hey

    Oh, nobody knows what we had
    Nobody knows what we had

    I won't live in your world
    You can't live in mine
    We don't hate each other darlin'
    We just gave up trying

    And nobody knows what we had
    Nobody knows what we had
    And nobody knows

    We were running out of passion, we were running out of time
    There's a face to fit the future, there's a face to fit the crime
    Now the truth is on the table and the ghost is plain to see
    There's nothing wrong with you or me, yeah

    Maybe I'm not crying
    Maybe I don't mind
    But it hurts just knowing
    That your children won't be mine

    Nobody knows what we had
    Nobody knows what we had

    Maybe I don't mind
    (Nobody knows what we had)
    Maybe I'm not crying
    (Nobody knows what we had)
    'Cause nobody knows what we had
    (Nobody knows what we had)
    And nothing wrong, wrong with you Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER NEIL, MICHAEL RUTHERFORD
