How would I know if my own heart was telling lies?

Quietly the feeling

Crept upon me

Slipped through my skin

Unexpectedly I realized

How would you feel if I tell you I love you?

Would I make you blush?

Or hear you say you love me too?

Will you walk away and leave me crying?

Feeling so afraid it would never be the same

Far too long have I been alone

I wouldn't know

If love came my way

Far too long have I been alone

I wouldn't know

If I could live this way

Cold and unreal

Do you stare unbelieving?

I finally crossed the line

Tried to break my masquerade

Do you feel betrayed

I kept this from you?

Feeling so afraid it would never be the same
