Because of this look you get in your eyes.
There’s this longing that I can see
that almost makes me cry,
because I can see that you want me
and I can see your love too.
And it’s almost a little scary
how much your love shows through.
Don’t think that I’m saying
I love you any less
But I could never let my love,
Through my face be confessed.
Because I am too afraid
Of what you’d see in me,
Afraid that I would scare you
And make you want to flee.
So I keep my feelings under lock and key.
And regret that love like yours
From me you cannot see.
