Truth
Love unspoken
All the times you cried
For Everytime you tried
I shed tears
For your lonely years
The pain you feel
Love, I feel it too
Making me just as blue
When you feel pain
I can feel the stain
Fear keeps the words inside
My love I hide
Being your friend
I'm with you to the end
But my silent word
Will never be heard
So my love goes unspoken
Watch your heart be broken
By this guy or that
While quietly I sat
Afraid of what I wished to say
Wouldn't want to be sent away
So your friend I stay
Loving words going unsaid
Running wild through my head
A heart broken by fear
The need to have you near
Will never come about now
Cause I don't know how
To speak my love for you
So we stay blue
That's true
What if you feel the same
Who would be the blame
If we never say
How we feel today
Live our lives alone
With love never to be shown.
While waiting for the other to speak
Our hearts grow weak
Life passes bye
How many times did we try
Love there wasted
Never to be tasted
All that it took was a word
One that was never heard
