She tries for the honesty but the truth gets in the way
|
Cause I know inside what she can't bring herself to say
|
There's something dying deep in her heart I feel it when I touch her hand
|
So I tell her a lie when I tell her I understand
|
But inside I die a little each day inside I feel her slipping away
|
Inside if she knew I hurt this way inside she'd find a reason to stay
|
And so I must keep this broken heart down deep inside
|
|
She turns to look at me trying to speak her mind
|
A thousand reasons in search of a single rhyme
|
And suddenly it occurs to me she's trying to say goodbye
|
So I give her a smile and tell her that I'll be alright
|
Oh but inside I die a little each day...
|
|
Sometimes love will slip away it's hard to say just why
|
Is it something that's said or is it instead something that just simply dies
|
Inside if she knew I hurt this way...
