Only You Know

I only cry at night 
So no one can see
The sensitive side I have
Can’t show the true me
The movie, there watching
Reminding of those years
When all was quite different 
It brought me to tears

I only cry at night
When safe in my home
I’m not around others
I would say I’m alone
Yet, here on the couch
You bring me to laugh
No one better for crying with
Than my better half
