If they only knew
How to keep you safe like I kept you
How to speak the words they never use
I wish they only knew
If they only saw
The way my lips would shake when they met yours
The way your heart was met with open doors
I wish they only saw
They never ever had the strength
To feel the way in what we meant
So leave, go home
Yeah, leave, go home
If you only knew
Love is just another shade of blue
You'd feel the same way that I do
I wish you only knew
If you only saw
These eyes light up that I adore
The smile I need and nothing more
I wish you only saw
They never ever had the strength
To feel the way in what we meant
So leave, go home
Yeah, leave, go home
If they only knew
I wish they only knew
If they only saw
I wish they only saw
If they only knew
I'd still be holding you
