NO ONE KNOWS


NO ONE KNOWS THE PAIN I AM IN
OR SEES THE TEARS IN MY EYES
THAT DO NOT SHED
EVER SINCE YOU LEFT 
NO ONE KNOWS HOW I CRY 
IN MY SLEEP SINCE MY ARMS 
NO LONGER HOLD YOU 
NO ONE KNOWS HOW I 
LONG TO HEAR YOUR VOICE OR
 HOLD YOUR HAND WHEN I WALK
NO ONE KNOWS THAT WHEN I TURN TO 
TELL YOU SOMETHING HOW MY HEART
BREAKS ALL OVER AGAIN
NO ONE KNOWS THAT
MY SMILES ARE FAKE OR
MY SOUL IS AN EMPTY SHELL
NO ONE KNOWS YOU WERE MY WORLD
THAT LIGHT THAT MADE 
MY SOUL SHINE OR THAT
OUR SOULS WERE ONE
NO ONE KNOWS
THE PAIN MY SOUL FEELS 
SINCE YOU ARE GONE
NO ONE KNOWS……………..
