You looked at me through someone else's eyes
Saw the mask, not what's inside
I spoke in silence, you heard pride
We were strangers standing side by side
But I saw your fire, though you tried to hide
And you saw my wounds that I dressed in white
All this time
We were dancing around the truth
Every fight
Was a mirror breaking through
I was wrong, you were scared
But we felt it even there
Love was waiting in disguise
All this time
The world drew lines we never made
Told us what to choose, who to obey
But something softer found its way
Through every word we couldn't say
You were more than I let myself see
And I became what I swore I'd never be
All this time
We were dancing around the truth
Every fight
Was a mirror breaking through
I was wrong, you were scared
But we felt it even there
Love was waiting in disguise
All this time
If I reached for you, would you turn away
Or would you see me now, without the blame
We lost and found ourselves in pride
But somehow love survived the night
All this time
We were aching just to know
If the heart
Could let the past go
I was yours, you were mine
But we learned it over time
Truth was written in your eyes
All this time
