Verse 1
She’s in her room with the lights turned low,
phone in her hand, heart beating too loud.
She types the words, then deletes them all,
‘cause she’s scared of the morning now.
Every laugh with you feels like a spark,
but the courage gets stuck in the dark.
She knows your smile, she knows your world,
but not how to lay down her heart and her words.
Pre-Chorus
‘Cause what if everything breaks
when she breaks the silence tonight?
What if your eyes look different
and nothing feels safe in that light?
Chorus
What if I tell you
and everything falls apart?
What if between us
nothing stays easy or soft?
I’m holding my feelings
like glass in my hands,
too tight and it cuts me,
too loose and it slips through the sand.
What if I tell you
and you don’t see me the same?
I’m scared I’ll change everything
when I say your name.
Verse 2
You build up your walls and call it being free,
say getting close just makes you feel weak.
Feelings are foreign, a place you don’t know,
and she’s at the border, afraid to go.
Sometimes your eyes stay a little too long,
like you’re almost admitting there might be more.
She keeps on smiling but it’s starting to hurt,
‘cause she sees how you run from the fire inside you.
She’s tired of always being the strong one,
while you hide behind “I’m better alone.”
There’s so much between you you never say,
every moment you push to another day.
Pre-Chorus
What if she’s too much
with all of the love that she feels?
What if your fear of closeness
kills the hope that she still keeps?
Chorus
What if I tell you
and everything falls apart?
What if between us
nothing stays easy or soft?
I’m holding my feelings
like glass in my hands,
too tight and it cuts me,
too loose and it slips through the sand.
What if I tell you
and you just walk away?
I’m scared I’ll change everything
just by being honest this way.
Bridge
Maybe silence is just a lie
we keep telling ourselves to survive.
Maybe truth is the thing that hurts,
but waiting hurts even worse.
Two hearts in the same damn room,
both too scared to make the move.
Maybe courage isn’t staying quiet,
maybe it’s risking the thing you love.
Final Chorus
What if I tell you
and we see each other new?
What if “maybe someday”
turns into me and you?
I’m scared, yeah, I am,
but I’m more scared of “never.”
Maybe everything changes—
maybe it finally gets better.
Outro
She takes a breath, lets her hands unshake,
doesn’t let fear decide her fate.
Between the hope and the breaking apart,
she whispers:
“What if you feel this too, in your heart?”
