[Verse 1]
You stand before me, with eyes so kind,
A love so rare, it’s hard to find.
You hold out your heart, open and true,
But I can’t give mine back the same way to you.
I wish I could tell you what’s broken inside,
But the words get lost, and I run to hide.
[Pre-Chorus]
I want to feel it, I want to believe,
But my heart’s a puzzle, and love’s out of reach.
[Chorus]
I wish I could love you, with all of my soul,
Give you the pieces to make you whole.
It’s not that I don’t care, it’s not that I’m blind,
But I’m lost in a darkness I can’t leave behind.
I wish I could love you, the way that you do,
But my heart just won’t let me be true.
[Verse 2]
You paint a future so vivid, so bright,
A world full of color, free of the night.
But I’m stuck in shadows, afraid to feel,
Wishing I could show you a love that’s real.
You deserve a fire that burns with no end,
Not someone like me, who can’t even pretend.
[Pre-Chorus]
I want to feel it, I want to believe,
But my fears are chains I can’t seem to leave.
[Chorus]
I wish I could love you, with all of my soul,
Give you the pieces to make you whole.
It’s not that I don’t care, it’s not that I’m blind,
But I’m lost in a darkness I can’t leave behind.
I wish I could love you, the way that you do,
But my heart just won’t let me be true.
[Verse 3]
Maybe someday, when the storms fade away,
I’ll find the courage to ask you to stay.
But for now, I watch as I let you go,
Hoping you’ll find the love I can’t show.
I’ll carry the thought of what we could be,
But love’s a dream that escapes from me.
[Pre-Chorus]
I want to feel it, I want to believe,
But I’m stuck in a battle I can’t seem to leave.
[Chorus]
I wish I could love you, with all of my soul,
Give you the pieces to make you whole.
It’s not that I don’t care, it’s not that I’m blind,
But I’m lost in a darkness I can’t leave behind.
I wish I could love you, the way that you do,
But my heart just won’t let me be true.
[Bridge]
You’re the light I never thought I’d find,
A voice that calms the chaos in my mind.
But love’s not a gift I can freely give,
When I’m still learning how to live.
It’s not you, it’s the scars I bear,
A weight too heavy for us to share.
[Outro]
I wish I could love you, but I’ll let you be,
To find the joy that I can’t set free.
And maybe someday, when I’ve healed my soul,
I’ll find you again, and love you whole.
