[Intro]
Never smells like dirt or dew, just a silent kind of blue
The wind whispers stories I don’t wanna believe, oh
[Verse 1]
He says he's out there, swinging high and low
Chopping down the dreams he used to know
But I never smell the pine, the gas, the sweat
Just a quiet man I can’t forget
[Pre-Chorus]
He promises me another dawn, another day
But leaves me waiting, wondering if he’ll stay
Am I just a shadow in his lonely game?
Or does he really love me, or just play?
[Chorus]
Does he love me, or is he just good at pretending?
Is he fooling himself, or the world he's defending?
Time’s cutting deep, I can't keep this feeling alive
Guess I’ve been used too many times to survive
He’s never dirty. I know He’s broken like me
What is he hiding behind those eyes?
He says he’s working, but I can see. He's in deep thought
Could he be lying, or am I just too blind to see?
[Bridge]
Old hearts don’t mend easy. They just wear thin
I'm wondering if love is just a game he’s in
I ask myself if I’m asking too much
Or if I’ve just lost touch with the trust
[Outro]
So I stand here, waiting in the rain
Hearing his silent, unspoken pain
Maybe he’s just a man who’s lost in the dark
Or maybe he’s a lie that’s left a mark
