Why Can’t You See Me?

Verse 1: In a room full of voices, yours is the one, That plays in my mind, like a never-ending song. I laugh at your jokes, and you glow in the light, But when the crowd fades, it's just your shadow in my night. Pre-Chorus: I'm standing on the edge of your world, Looking in, wishing I could be your girl. But every step closer seems to push you away, In this dance of shadows, I silently sway. Chorus: Why can’t you see me, in the way I do you? Holding onto a dream, that never comes true. It’s a symphony of wishes, in a minor key, Waiting for a love, that can’t break free. Verse 2: Our conversations paint a picture so clear, A masterpiece of 'almost', tinted with fear. You share your hopes, and I share mine too, But the color of love, doesn't seep through. Pre-Chorus: Caught in the orbit of your gaze, so near yet far, I'm the moon to your sun, a distant star. Longing for a spark to ignite what's in my heart, Whispering to the night, why are we apart? Chorus: Why can’t you see me, in the way I do you? Holding onto a dream, that never comes true. It’s a symphony of wishes, in a minor key, Waiting for a love, that can’t break free. [instrumental break] Bridge: But maybe in another time, another life, You'd play the chords, and I'd be the rhyme. Till then, I’ll hold on to the melody we could be, In this silent song of a love that's not meant to be. Chorus: Why can’t you see me, in the way I do you? Grasping onto hope, faint and few. It's a symphony of wishes, in a minor key, Yearning for a love, where we could just be. Outro: So, I'll keep singing this song, under my breath, A tale of us, that dances with the concept of death. But even if you never, ever learn the tune, Just know, it was always for you, my unrequited moon.
