I love the smile you wear in every crowd,
The easy laugh that lights the whole room up.
The strength you show when life gets heavy,
The grace you give when times get rough.
You make the whole world think they’ve seen you,
But I know there’s so much more.
Every layer tells a story,
Every heartbeat holds a dream.
I love the face you show the others,
I love the one you pretend to be.
I love the soul that’s deep inside you,
And who you always bring out in me.
I’ve seen your laughter, I’ve held your tears,
I’ve loved you through your doubts and fears.
But most of all, through all we see,
I love the one you only share with me.
When the lights are low and the day is over,
You lay your armor on the floor.
No more hiding, no pretending,
No need to be somebody more.
That’s the heart I fell in love with,
The one no one else gets to know.
You don’t have to earn my love,
You don’t have to wear a disguise.
Every scar and every secret
Only makes you shine brighter in my eyes.
I love the face you show the others,
I love the one you pretend to be.
I love the real person you are inside,
And who you always bring out in me.
The world may know a different side,
But I’ve been blessed to see them all.
And most of all, my heart believes,
I love the one you only share with me.
When the day is done and the world can’t see,
Thank you for the one you only share with me
