Lyrics
Intro
Mm...
If you only knew...
Maybe I'd tell you.
Maybe.
Verse 1
I catch myself looking when you don't look back
Then I turn away like I never did that
You say my name and my whole mood changes
But I play it cool, hiding what I'm feeling
I wish I could believe I'm enough
But my mind always tells me I'm not
So even when you're standing close
I'm scared to let you know
Pre-Chorus
'Cause every time I get close
That little voice says, "Don't"
What if you don't feel the same?
What if you see me and walk away?
Chorus
If you only knew
How long I've been wanting you
Every little thing you do
Makes it harder not to fall for you
If you only knew
What I don't have the courage to do
I'd tell you, but I'm scared you'd see
Everything I don't like about me
Verse 2
Late at night, you're all I think about
Wondering what would happen if I let it out
I replay every word you say
Then convince myself I'm just in the way
You could tell me I'm beautiful
But I'd still question if it's true
'Cause I don't see what you see
When you look at me
Bridge
I want to tell you
I want to get close
But I'm terrified
You'll tell me no
So I'll keep this secret
Safe inside my heart
Wanting you quietly
From the very start
Final Chorus
If you only knew
How much I've been wanting you
Every little thing you do
Makes it harder not to fall for you
If you only knew
I'd tell you if I wasn't afraid
But until I learn to love myself
I'll keep these feelings locked away
Outro
If I look away...
When you look at me...
It's not because I don't want you.
It's because I do.
If you only knew...
