What I See Inside of You

A hint of a glance on a typical sunny day
The tiny reveal when you silently steal away
It's no one else's business
What you choose to keep inside
There's nothing to be done
By anyone
'Cause you've already tried

What I see inside of you
Could break my heart in spite of you
Things you think that no one can see
Are clear to me

It's all the things you never say
Emotions that you push away
Go hidden in the light of day
In corners where they need to stay

There's nothing to do
It had happened so long ago
A troubling question
An answer you'll never know
So every now and then
A shadow moves across your heart
A moment passes by and then
It's just a part of who you are

Your secret is safe on my word
It's not mine to tell
It's all of a piece with
Protecting a fragile shell
If once in every while
You catch a tender smile from me
It's all that I can do
I only wish that I could set you free

What I see inside of you
Could break my heart in spite of you
Things you think that no one can see
Are clear to me

It's all the things you never say
Emotions that you push away
Go hidden in the light of day
In corners where they need to stay
What I see inside of you
