lyrics

I never told you
But I love you like the moonlight
Shining down on me
In present, perfect grace.

I never told you
But I need you like the sunlight
To keep me warm,
Even though you're far away.

I never told you
But I think of you so often,
You're like poison,
You are running through my veins.

I never told you
But you remind me of a ship
With open sails
That's why you never seemed to stay.

I never told you,
I hope you call me on my birthday
Knowing that you've made
A horrible mistake.

I never told you,
That leaving on that airplane
Killed a part of me
I hoped you would keep safe.

I never told you
But my heart felt cold and empty
Til' I kissed you
On that rainy day.

I never told you
But your eyes are like the ocean
Deep and blue and cold
I'm sinking endlessly.
