Lyrics
[Skit]
(Softly spoken)
I see you there, just out of reach
A love that’s silent, a lesson you teach
In the shadows, where secrets lie
I whisper to the night, asking why
[Strumming guitar]
Your smile, a forbidden dream
Caught between reality and a distant gleam
In the quiet of this room, my heart's unrest
I pen these words, a love confessed
[Verse 1]
I see you standing there, across the crowded room
A look so pure, so rare, it cuts right through the gloom
But there's a wall between us, a line that I can't cross
In this silent war of hearts, I’m afraid I'll lose and pay the cost
[Pre-Chorus]
I love you in a way I'm not allowed to
So I'll keep trying to forget you
Every night I whisper to the stars
Hoping they’ll carry my broken heart afar
[Chorus]
If I could write you a song to make you fall in love
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all my tricks, I hope that you like this
But all my words, they fail, to mend what's gone amiss
[Verse 2]
I tried to hide the truth, but it shines through my disguise
A longing in my soul, reflected in my eyes
We danced around the edge, of what could never be
Now every step I take is haunted by your memory
[Pre-Chorus]
I love you in a way I'm not allowed to
So I'll keep trying to forget you
Every night I whisper to the stars
Hoping they’ll carry my broken heart afar
[Chorus]
If I could write you a song to make you fall in love
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all my tricks, I hope that you like this
But all my words, they fail, to mend what's gone amiss
[Bridge]
The echoes of your laughter, they linger in my mind
A melody that's bittersweet, a love I cannot find
I’ve painted you in colors, that dreams are made of
But reality keeps pulling me away from what I love
[Chorus]
If I could write you a song to make you fall in love
I would already have you up under my arm
I used up all my tricks, I hope that you like this
But all my words, they fail, to mend what's gone amiss
[Outro]
I love you in a way I'm not allowed to
So I'll keep trying to forget you
But every night I whisper to the stars
Hoping they’ll carry my broken heart afar
