Half Your Heart
I'm no fool you know
theres way more on my mind than I would ever say out loud
Don't take my silence as a lack of knowledge, just a lack of sound
Cause I'm not sure what to say to you
Sometimes I can't tell if I'm speaking to you or your wall
So without the risk of being ignored
I say nothing at all
It's cold when we're alone
the words you whisper aren't your own
I am beautiful
but not you're kind of beauty
I am worth it
just not your kind of worthy
I am talented, intelligent, true
I am well desired
just not by you
Yes It hurts but it's no surprise
a woman knows when you look in her eyes
and see someone else.
I may have never said it out loud
but I always knew how you felt
Half your heart wants to love me
the other half isn't sure
cause I might be enough
but I'll never be her
