Touch
Every time I try to tell you how I feel,
The words halt on my lips and nothing seems quite real.
If only I could let my heart speak for me,
But your eyes meet not mine, I guess it's not meant to be.
As each day passed your sweet words grew dear to my heart.
My heart is still and cries tears of blood whenever we're apart.
How can I ever tell you how much you mean to me?
You keep me alive showing me truths I don't want to see.
I search within myself to find the words I need.
They only come out as whispers and my eyes begin to plead.
I need to see the way to tell you what I feel inside.
My words die and fall away as I face you in your pride.
Silent tears of anguish begin to fall down my face,
I move to stand in shadows, the light of love is not my place.
I try again with my soul, words of beauty from depths untold.
You hear not the words, you are not moved to love, my world is cold.
