Silence so saccharine it almost hurts

You never had to speak your mind

It was always there in plain sight

I never had to close my eyes

You never had to say those words

I could see affection in your eyes

You never had to say those words

I know the truth inside your lies

Innocence smiles with cherubic eyes

You light my fire and watch me yearn

Ever-oblivious to the consequences

Of watching me as I burn

You never had to say those words

I could see affection in your eyes

You never had to say those words

I know the truth inside your lies

Your beauty’s so effulgent

I can feel it in my soul

Infuse me with angelic grace

And watch me as I glow

You never had to say those words

I could see affection in your eyes

You never had to say those words

I know the truth inside your lies…
