Unspoken
------------
Too many words unspoken
Too grand an emotion left unsaid
In thought of you my hearts skips a beat
Anxious fear; what will it meet?
You open up; confess to me
Yet my heart I cannot let you see
*
You look at me with tempting eyes
An offer pure that bears no lies
And then so quick the moment's done
Try to force the words that never come
Despite the pain I was forced to bear
Am I a coward?  Can't I show how much I care?
You speak the words I feel inside
You're one in which I can confide
So you frown thinking I don't feel the same for you
With all I have I swear I do
*
Yet somehow in it all
I managed to find my resolve
I smiled and took your offered hand
And made your understand
However misleading it may have been
With every sentence just couldn't begin
All the confessions I chose to ignore
It's really you I'm dying for
*
In the moment I hold you near
You melt away all of my fear
I close my eyes and feel at last
The time for lonely hearts has passed
And with my burdens I forsake a few
For this is when I think of you
*
