Behind Every Mask
Behind Every Mask
I'm in love with the warmth of your lips.
I can still feel the edge of your fingertips.
Your hands on my hips.
The electricity in your eyes.
The smile your face won't hide
even if it tried.
There are questions you won't ask.
There are answers I may never have.
Falling in love is quite a task.
There is truth behind every mask.
There's a ferocity that never dies
when love truly tries.
We could walk, we could run for miles.
Endure any trial
Glance at each deceptive face that smiles.
But, that won't define the cruelty it beholds now
when love makes its final vow
There are questions you won't ask.
There are answers I may never have.
Falling in love is quite a task.
There is truth behind every mask.
I don't have every solution you'll ever need.
I won't have the formula every time you succeed.
But, I will be the love you never expected this of.
There are questions you know you'll ask.
There are answers I'll eventually have.
Falling in love is quite the task.
There is hidden truth behind every mask.
