Never Learn
Accident, I promise you I did not mean to
Always the same,I'm just that kind that never learns
Never learns
'I'm sorry' is my catchphrase, tripping over my own feet, my specialty. Gran was always worried that I would be a Squib. I was always such a disappointment, even thought she never said it. I could see it in her eyes. Then, I received my letter. She was so proud. I was glad I could make her happy, since little seemed to do that, now with my parents......my parents.......
Everything I touch breaks and turns to dust
Everything I try to grow just decays
I love Herbology. I'm pretty good at it and that's saying something. I'm not good at much. Potions especially.
I know that it's true
I know it's not you
I know that it's me and
I don't envy you
I just never learn
I always ask for help with everything. I can tell by your sighs that you get impatient with my same questions over and over again. I'm sorry.
Down the drain, I didn't mean to drag you with me
Always the same, I'm just that kind that never learns
Never learns
I'm sorry, Hermione, for getting you in constant trouble with Snape. I'm such a coward to be afraid of that greasy git. He's just words. He can't hurt me....but every time he looks down his hooked nose and sneers at me....I kind of freeze.
Everything I touch breaks and turns to dust
Everything I try to grow just decays
I want to be everything you want me to be. Strong, smart, brave....but I can't....well not as well as Ron or Harry....or in front of Snape. You are all those things and more. Beautiful, funny, graceful, compassionate. I saw the look you gave me at St. Mungo's last year. Anyone else would have pitied me. I wouldn't want it from anyone, but you didn't. You gave something else. It was compassion.
I know that it's true
I know it's not you
I know that it's me and
I don't envy you
I just never learn
You are the great Hermione Granger. You are the best friend of the Boy Who Lived. You would never look twice at me.
I promise you I tried to be
everything that you wanted me to be
I tried, really, I tried. I'm just not good enough, well not for you. You deserve someone who will stand up for you, like when Malfoy calls you a Mudblood. Someone who is strong and who will knock the stuffing out of him. Someone you can speak with about issues. Someone attractive. Someone who will love you with all his heart. I hope you can someone close to that, with all those qualities. I hope Ron takes good care of you, being your boyfriend. I hope he lives up to those standards. But you won't find someone who loves you more than me.
I know that its true
I know it's not you
I know that its me and
I don't envy you
I just never learn
I'll just watch my world crack from the other side of the corridor as Ron wraps his arm around you. I'll just feel my heart break as Ron whispers something in your ear. I'll just hear the air rush in my ears as you smile and laugh about it. I'll just smell the scent of your shampoo as you, Ron and Harry hurry passed me. I'll just taste the bitterness of loss as you disappear, your arms around Ron.
I promise you I tried to be
Everything that you wanted me to be
I'll always love you, Hermione. Even if I can only love you from a distance.
