Words Unspoken

I've got a million things to say, but my tongue gets tied
Words unspoken, I can't break the stride
My heart's aching, trying to find its voice
But every time I open up, I close the door with a choice

In the quiet of the night, I whisper to the stars
Hoping they might hear what I can't share
I dream of telling you how much I care
But waking up, it's just me and my despair

[Chorus]
Words unspoken, they weigh me down
In my head, they're just a frown
I want to show you, let you know
But I'm scared to let my guard go

I see your smile, your laugh, everything
It's like a puzzle piece, fits just right
But when it comes to talking, I can't sing
For fear that if I speak, I'll lose sight

I've tried so hard, to find the way
To break through the silence, to play
But sometimes I wonder, will I ever be okay?
If I can finally say, "I love you, come what may"

Every moment we spend, feels like a test
If I can just get past this, my heart will rest

Words unspoken, they keep me still
I need to find a way, to break through the chill
To tell you how I feel, to let you know
That every word I say, is meant to grow and glow
