1
The greatest man I never knew lived just down the hall,
2
and ev'ry day we said hello but never touched at all.
3
He was in his paper. I was in my room.
4
How was I to know he thought I hung the moon?
5
The greatest man I never knew came home late ev'ry night,
6
He never had to much to say. Too much was on his mind.
7
I never really knew him, oh and now it seems so sad.
8
Ev'rything he gave to us took all he had.
9
Then the days turned into years, and the mem'ries to black and white.
10
He grew cold like an old winter wind blowing across my life.
11
The greatest words I never heard I guess I'll never hear.
12
The man I thought could never die has been dead almost a year.
13
Oh, he was good at bus'ness but there was bus'ness left to do.
14
He never said he loved me. Guess he thought I knew.
