[Verse 1]
I see you laugh, and my heart goes cold
'Cause I know your hand's already been hold
You talk about love like it’s all figured out
But I’m stuck in a place where I can’t speak out
We share these nights like we’re more than friends
But I’m just a secret you won’t defend
Wishing I could be your truth, not a lie
But you're with him, and I don’t ask why
[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to stay away, tried to let it be
But everything about you keeps pulling me
You're the line I never should cross
But I’m already lost
[Chorus]
If you weren’t taken, I’d be all in
Pourin’ my soul, lettin’ love begin
But I’m just a shadow you don’t see
Holdin’ back what you mean to me
You got someone, so I play my part
But you’re the quiet storm inside my heart
Not mine to hold, not mine to claim
But I love you just the same
[Verse 2]
You don’t see the way I look at you
Like I’m searchin’ for the truth
In every word you say, I fall
And you don’t even know at all
You say he's good, and I smile through pain
Wish I didn’t feel this way in vain
But here I am, stuck in between
What’s real and what could’ve been
[Pre-Chorus]
Tried to stay away, tried to let it be
But everything about you keeps pulling me
You're the line I never should cross
But I’m already lost
[Chorus]
If you weren’t taken, I’d be all in
Pourin’ my soul, lettin’ love begin
But I’m just a shadow you don’t see
Holdin’ back what you mean to me
You got someone, so I play my part
But you’re the quiet storm inside my heart
Not mine to hold, not mine to claim
But I love you just the same
[Bridge]
I wonder late at night
If you feel this fire too
Or am I just the friend
You never really knew
[Final Chorus]
If you weren’t taken, I’d be all in
Pourin’ my soul, lettin’ love begin
But I’m just a shadow you don’t see
Holdin’ back what you mean to me
You got someone, so I play my part
But you’re the quiet storm inside my heart
Not mine to hold, not mine to claim
But I love you just the same
