Letras
I've tried to say this so many times,
But every time I get close, my voice just stops.
Somewhere along the way,
You became the person my thoughts return to
When everything else goes quiet.
I didn't choose it.
It just grew slowly,
Until it hurt to keep it hidden.
I rehearse the words in my head,
But when I try to speak them
My throat tightens
And the fear takes over again.
I wish you knew
What I'm scared to say.
I wish you knew
How you stay with me every day.
I keep it quiet,
But my heart keeps pulling to you.
I wish you knew,
I wish you knew.
The smallest things you do
Stay with me longer than they should.
A look, a laugh,
The way you say my name-
It all hits deeper than I let show.
You move through your day so easily
While I'm here trying not to break
Over feelings I never meant to grow.
I'm not hiding because of you.
I'm hiding because
I don't know if I'd survive the hurt
If your answer wasn't what I needed.
I wish you knew
What I'm scared to say.
I wish you knew
How you stay with me every day.
I keep it quiet,
But my heart keeps pulling to you.
I wish you knew,
I wish you knew.
If you knew how many times
I almost told you,
How many moments
The truth sat right there on the edge,
But fear kept pulling me back-
Afraid of losing you,
Afraid of being too much,
Afraid of breaking what we already have.
I wish you knew
What I'm scared to say.
I wish you knew
How you stay with me every day.
I keep it quiet,
But my heart keeps pulling to you.
I wish you knew,
God... I wish you knew.
