Lyrics
"WORDS I NEVER SAID"
(Verse 1)
I see you in the morning light
Coffee in your hand, everything feels right
You laugh at something on your phone
And I'm right here, but I'm alone
You ask me how I've been
I smile and say "I'm fine" again
But there's a thousand things I want to say
That just get lost along the way
(Pre-Chorus)
You don't see the way I look at you
When you're not looking back
You don't hear my heart break every time
You talk about someone new
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm missing someone who's standing right here
Loving someone who doesn't know
Every moment with you feels like goodbye
'Cause I can't tell you, can't let it show
I'm drowning in these words I never said
Living in a love that's in my head
Missing you while you're right here with me
Loving you silently
(Verse 2)
I memorize the way you move
Every little thing you say and do
You tell me all your secrets, all your dreams
But you don't know you're everything to me
I keep playing out the scene
Where I finally come clean
But the fear of losing what we have
Keeps these feelings buried in the past
(Pre-Chorus)
You don't see the way I come alive
When you say my name
You don't know I'd give up everything
Just to ease your pain
(Chorus)
'Cause I'm missing someone who's standing right here
Loving someone who doesn't know
Every moment with you feels like goodbye
'Cause I can't tell you, can't let it show
I'm drowning in these words I never said
Living in a love that's in my head
Missing you while you're right here with me
Loving you silently
(Bridge)
Maybe someday I'll be brave
Maybe I'll find the words to say
But for now, I'll keep pretending
That this friendship is enough
Even though it's killing me
To love you from a distance
When you're close enough to touch
Maybe you'll wake up one day
And finally see me standing here
Maybe you'll realize you loved me too
All along, all these years
(Final Chorus)
But I'm missing someone who's standing right here
Loving someone who doesn't know
Every smile you give me feels bittersweet
'Cause there's so much I can't show
I'm drowning in these words I never said
Building castles in my head
Missing you while you're right here with me
Loving you endlessly
(Outro)
So I'll keep these secrets safe
Keep this love locked away
And maybe one day you'll know
All the words I never said
All the love I never showed
Until then, I'll keep missing you
While you're standing right here
Right here with me
