All I Can't Say

   There's so much I can't say
   when I look into your eyes.

   I'm worried you'll reject me
   and hurt my foolish pride.

   Each day this love grows stronger,
   but I could never let you know.

   There's so much behind my smile
   that I could never show.

   I'd hold you for a lifetime,
   if you would let me in.

   I'd love you like no other,
   but you just don't understand.

   Every time I see you,
   you are holding on to her.

   The pain is like a knife
   cutting deep into my soul.

   So I'll dream of us together,
   of just how it could be.

   And all that you are
   will remain a silent part of me.
