lyrics

I can’t tell you I’m in love
I’d say too much and scare you off
You had lost your faith in the world
The woman had returned to the girl
In the woods of wolves and men
Scared to sleep or dream again
That’s why I can’t tell you I’m in love

I can’t tell you I’m in love
Your moat runs deep, your guard is up
Love was only mirrors and smoke
Under the enchantment of hope
He was stuck inside his mind
Callous in disguise as kind
That’s why I can’t tell you

I’m in love with your very heart
I fear that I was from the start
Now every time I try to reach inside
You break apart

I can’t tell you I’m in love
The storm has come, the seas are rough
But I’ll walk with you in the rain
Stand beside you, facing your pain
Hope is hoping once again
You’ll fall under its spell, and then
That’s when I can tell you I’m in love
