Can't Know


W ind is chiming and it makes me want to dance.

Heaven is dying and fading fast.

Evermore I wait for you.

Nevermore can you be true.

 

In love but you can’t know.

 

Truth be told, if I tell you, you’ll probably leave me.

How can you be so cruel? But that’s how it is so

I lie to make you stay.

Nobody could resist love so pure.

Killing me softly, sad to the core.

 

Only I wanted more

From you.

 

You’re right, it’s selfish of me but it’s more than I can bare.

Or maybe you’re the selfish one, giving me nothing but vulnerability,

Under our moon.
