The Painful Silence

When you see that special person, you don't know what to do,

or what to say or even just how to.
The world just stops spinning and all is left is me and her,
even for really just an instant, it's forever.
But her never knowing, makes me want to just cry out loud,
because to her I will always remain a face in the crowd.

You want to shout your feelings, but they'll never be said,
To tell her that you love her will remain in your head.
How you can just fall into her smile and deep beautiful eyes,
and how you'd be true and never tell her lies.
But her never knowing, makes me want to just cry out loud,
because to her I will always remain a face in the crowd.

You'd like to tell her that you'd be there when she's sad and all alone,
and to tell her you'd protect her, but you can't pick up the phone.
She's the angel of your affection, but why can't she see,
you are just dying to be her Darcy and make her your Eve.
But her never knowing, makes me want to just cry out loud,
because to her I will always remain a face in the crowd.

You'd like to sincerely take her in your arms, and all the while
She's making the world brighter as she's taking the time to smile.
She has that special way of saying nothing and everything at same time,
which can make the cloudiest and darkest day feel amazingly sublime.
But her never knowing, makes me want to just cry out loud,
because to her I will always remain a face in the crowd.

I will always wonder if it was ever meant to be,
Were her backward glances ever directed towards me.
I'll never know and it just eats me up inside,
all this pain I'm feeling, feeling like I've died.
Her never knowing, makes me want to just cry out loud,
because to her I will always be just the same face in the crowd.
