I've been holding back these words back
Waiting for the right time
To tell you what I really feel
You're a dream I keep chasing, so out of reach
Blocking your voice out, just drift from your speech
Maybe I'm a story that you've already read
Just another chapter in a book that you've left
Am I
Just a game
That you play
In the back of your mind
A whisper in the shadows
A secret you'll leave behind
I'm trying to break through
But you keep me at bay
My love is all I have and you push it away
I'm reaching out
But you just play
With my heart and all it craves
I'm just laying my heart out
Standing on the line
But every time I reach for you, you leave me behind
Oh behind
I'm pouring out my soul, but you don't seem to care
You're dancing in the moonlight, while I'm caught in a snare
And though I've tried my all, it's just feels I'm involved
You turn and walk away, while I'm stuck in yesterday
Chasing after dreams that just seem to fade away
You're running through my mind and as you do just slip away
Oh away
Now I'll close this book today
And start another day.
