Lyric

You say I never wear my heart on my sleeve

Like I don’t feel, like I don’t grieve

But I’m just trying to keep my cool

If I slip, you’ll see right through

Oh, the way you smile, it shakes my ground

One soft word, I’m lost, I drown

So I stand tall, play the part

But you’re the only one inside my heart

I just wanna be the one you need

Wanna be the strength you see

Every word, every move I make

Is just to keep my heart from breakin’

I crave the way you say my name

Wanna hear you call when you’re in pain

So I hold back, play it smart

But you’re already deep inside my heart

Oh, the way you smile, it shakes my ground

One soft word, I’m lost, I drown

So I stand tall, play the part

But you’re the only one inside my heart

I just wanna be the one you need

Wanna be the strength you see

Every word, every move I make

Is just to keep my heart from breakin’

If you knew the truth, would you stay?

Or would my walls just fall away?

I’m not cold, I’m not stone

I just don’t wanna be alone

So I keep my mask in place

But darlin’, you’re my saving grace

One day, I’ll find the nerve to say

That I’ve loved you all the way
