[Intro]
Silence lingers, unspoken words, a love that’s kept behind closed doors
Eyes that speak what lips won't say, hiding feelings every day
[Verse 1]
He watches her from a distance, her laughter fills the empty air
A world apart in silence, yet he’s wishing he could dare
To tell her all her beauty drives his heart insane,
But trust is fragile now, and so he bears his silent pain
[Pre-Chorus]
She sees the shadows behind his eyes, knows he's fighting silent fights
As her love blooms in the daylight, he’s haunted by the midnight
[Chorus]
He loves her in his quiet, in his shadowed world inside
A rescue wrapped in fear, in secret he will hide
Though her kindness softly calls, he’s lost within the storm,
Wishing he could tell her that he’s already warm
[Verse 2]
Memories of wounds he’s buried, trust that’s been betrayed,
Have built these walls around him, keep his feelings betrayed
But her gentle voice, it reaches through, a tender, patient plea,
In her eyes, he sees the truth, she’s longing to set him free
[Pre-Chorus]
And she can tell, she knows it’s real, these tears he doesn’t reveal
Her love’s a light that could heal, if only he would feel
[Chorus]
He loves her in his quiet, in his shadowed world inside
A rescue wrapped in fear, in secret he will hide
Though her kindness softly calls, he’s lost within the storm,
Wishing he could tell her that he’s already warm
[Bridge]
Maybe someday, he’ll find the courage to confide,
Break the silence, let her see the love he feels inside
Until that moment, he’ll wait, watch her walk through life’s parade,
Holding onto hope that love won’t be afraid
[Outro]
So he stays in silent love, watching from afar,
Holding back his tears, trapped behind a starless scar
But in his heart he knows, one day he’ll find the way,
To tell her all he’s hiding, and not be afraid
