I see you there, the way you smile
The kind of light that stays awhile
I tell myself it’s just a phase
But your eyes pull me through the haze
You pass me by, and time stands still
I lose my words, against my will
I try to talk, but all I do
Is hide what my heart’s telling you
So we play this quiet game
Both afraid to speak the same
If you only knew what I feel inside
How your name keeps me awake at night
I’d give it all just to let it show
But I don’t know if you’d want to know
If you only knew
I take the long way just to see
The chance of you just passing me
Our laughter dances in the air
But truth is hiding somewhere there
You say goodnight, I say I’m fine
But love’s a line I can’t define
I dream of you, but still pretend
That maybe love won’t break or bend
So we keep this gentle lie
In the silence, hearts collide
If you only knew what I feel inside
How your name keeps me awake at night
I’d give it all just to let it show
But I don’t know if you’d want to know
Maybe someday we’ll cross that line
Maybe someday I’ll call you mine
But until then, I’ll stand apart
Hoping you can hear my heart
If you only knew what I feel inside
How you’re the reason I can’t hide
Maybe it’s love, maybe it’s fate
But I can’t wait, I can’t wait
If you only knew…
If you only knew...
