"Never let him know the way you feel"
If ever I let the words spill from my lips
He will be gone, lost to me forever
"A friend" He says, "That's all I need.
Someone to listen when I need to talk"
So I listen as he bares his pains and sorrows
Knowing in my heart that one day
I will no longer be able to keep this inside
My skin aches to feel his touch
To have him hold me in his arms
Tenderly to caress my body with his lips
To be his in every way that can be
He owns my soul and I breathe for him alone
No other will ever possess what I would
Give to him willingly, gladly even if I knew
That in giving him this gift I would perish
So I listen and I watch as he goes by
Chasing after the dream of a love
That I could give him if only
He would let me
