Why are you hiding behind that smile?
Avoiding my questions for a while
Am I an admirer who you’d rather fail?
A fleeting lapse, then you replace the veil
I would like to love, but I know not what it is
I set up my targets; I didn’t know I’d miss
I put my feelings on the shelf
Crushed by the dust of misguided years
Is this for me, am I worth the time?
But I know what you mean when you say things are fine
How can we be close when you hold me so far away?
Are you hiding your feelings for another day?
And I’ve something to tell you
And it’s something quite new
You thought you were the only one
Well, I do it too.
