I Thought She Knew

She was my once in a lifetime

Happy ending come true

Oh I guess I should have told her

I thought she knew

Ranma sat in the tree watching the busy Tendo house as they got ready for the wedding.

She said I took her for granted

That's the last thing I would do

Whoa I'll never understand it

I thought she knew

I thought she knew

"Ranma I hate you! I never want to see you again! Consider our engagement off! Isn't that what you wanted!" Akane yelled at him, tears streaming down her face.

"Yeah! Maybe I did!" Ranma yelled back.

I thought she knew

My world revolved around her

My love light burned for her alone

But she couldn't see the flame

Only myself to blame

I should have known

I should have known

Ranma shook his head as he remembered that night. A single tear traced his face.

'Why did I say that?'

A heart full of words left unspoken

Now that we're through

I'd sell my soul to have this silence broken

Oh I thought she knew

I thought she knew

Ranma looked into one of the windows as Akane walked by in her white dress. 'Why didn't I tell you I loved you? Why was I such a jerk to you?' Tears came more freely down his face.

"Akane, I'm sorry. I love you, Akane," he whispered as he watched her laugh and smile on her wedding day.

I thought she knew

My world revolved around her

My love light burned for her alone

But she couldn't see the flame

Only myself to blame

I should have known

I should have known

Ranma remembered when Akane walked up to him the day she got engaged.

"Ranma?"

"Yes Akane?"

"Ryoga asked me to marry him today."

"He did?"

"Yes, he did. The wedding is going to be this summer. I do wish that you would come."

Ranma stared at her, heartbroken.

"I- I don't know, Akane. I'll… I'll think about it."

Akane nodded, turned and walked away. She was un aware of the tears that were beginning to stream down Ranma's face.

She was my once in a lifetime

Happy ending come true

Whoa I guess I should have told her

But I thought she knew

I thought she knew

"I love you, Akane…" Ranma sobbed.

**End!!**
