love love love

no one knows how i feel
although it hurts, i can't stop

have you ever been in love?
fallen at first sight, like in the movies?
have you ever spent the entire night on the phone?
or bragged to the whole world?
maybe you waited in the pouring rain?
and ran like crazy to the one your love?
have you ever pretended not to see when you really did?
have you ever gone crazy?

i'm sure you have been in love
spent all your money on an anniversary
apologized even when you did nothing wrong
i'm sure you have spent all day writing love letters
pushing back promises with your family and ignoring your friends

i loved you with all my life
i gave you my body, my soul
i lost everything for you
how could you?

have you ever had your heart broken?
had your makeup washed off in the pouring rain?
cut your long hair?
started smoking again?
avoided places he might be?
wrote letters you knew you would never send?
called him just to hang up, just to hear his voice
hello?
had your lips freeze up?

i'm sure you've had a broken heart
hating him as much as you loved him
i'm sure you have ripped up letters you never read
and deleted phone numbers you will never forget
i'm sure you have celebrated anniversaries alone as you burned all the photographs
i'm sure you have thought every song in the world about heartbreak was yours

no one knows my heart
although it hurts, i can't stop

have you ever ran out of tears?
cried so hard you couldn't sleep?
couldn't eat?
couldn't breathe?


time passes

although it hurts
no one knows my heart

but in reality, only you don't know
