I learned your smile without your name
I memorized the way you breathe
Every feeling stayed unspoken
Like a secret under my skin
I held my heart behind my eyes
Afraid that truth would change your life
So I chose silence over us
I loved you quiet I loved you deep
In every word I couldn't speak
I stayed beside you half unseen
A ghost in moments in between
If I had spoken would you stay?
Or would I lose you anyway?
So I kept love where it was safe
Inside the words I never said
I watched you laugh with someone else
And told myself that I was fine
But every step you took away
Pulled something fragile out of mine
I played the role of just a friend
While every glance was holding back
The truth that lived inside my chest
I loved you quiet I loved you long
In every night I stayed too strong
I smiled when you said his name
While my heart burned without a flame
I chose your peace instead of mine
I chose to lose you every time
So I kept love where it was safe
Inside the words I never said
Some loves are real but never free
They live in "what if" endlessly
Not every heart is meant to claim
The love it carries in its name
I don't regret the love I hid
It made me who I am today
If love was silent it was true
Even without a word to say
And if I love again someday
I'll be brave enough to choose
To speak the words I couldn't then
And not become my own regret
I let you go without a sound
But love was there the whole time
