Only You Will Know

Only You Will Know

When is the right time?
To show what she really means
How would I ever know
that she is truly keen?

Our differences are never told
and it hurts me when she holds me
so close I struggle to breathe
but I love it,
even though that one day will come
where she will have to leave.

This pincushion inside me will not shake
and I'm becoming tired of trying to fake
it's not perfect, it never was
those cracks in our relationship, they break
apart, yet still we try.

Forgive and forget, you said,
Live and let die, but I regret,
regret how I didn't tell you, everyday
I think about you and hold onto thin air
as if it was you.

I try to forget why,
forget why you said goodbye in
the split of the night,
nobody told me the real reason
why, and yet I live each day
by and by,
by and by,
this eternal love is the only
way I can repay you, my love.
