If She Only Knew
If she only knew the way i feel
How weak my armor is with all its steel
I try to shield myself from her charm
But it moves automatically, my arm
Reaching out for her everyday
How I want to spend with her my day
I love her but she's still blind
If she could only read my mind!
However, once again it is all in my head
All of it, love and its shades of red
But how long will it ever take
For her to see how much my heart ache
Emotions are taking control
While misery is taking its toll
Waiting as sorrow's wind blew
Living with the "if she only knew"
