So many times
Friends ask me, "how are you"
I'd say, "I'm fine, I'm happy
How about you?"
But many times
I lie in bed alone
I ask myself again,"you sure, you're happy?"
Can't answer at once
Because you know what, I'm lying.
I didn't know how to tell you
I didn't know where to start
Hiding in myself is a loving heart.
Then you came out of nowhere
And you said you would always care
And forever you'll be there
I could not believe my heart
For I know you're the answer to my prayer.
I have learned to smile
Through joy and through pain
And I've learned to pretend
I wanted to set sail
I wanted to fly across the ocean so blue
Just to be with you.
I could only hear the silence of the pillows
It's the only one that knows
I realize now why I'm feeling so high
When I'm feeling so low
And all I can do is close my eyes
Just to reach out to you.
Hoping on the other side
There was you
The air whispers
I say my silent prayers
Hoping there could be answers
Hoping I could hold you.
