When, I and You
When I was down,
You pretended to be a clown;
When you couldn't speak,
I didn't think you were weak;
When I would cry,
You wouldn't pry;
When you had tears,
I forgot my fears;
When I felt like hell,
You could tell;
When you didn't know,
I would show;
When I was mad,
You were sad;
But when you didn't care,
I wasn't there.
