Verse 1
(Soft piano, gentle strings enter)
I watch you smile, I hear you laugh,
Like a melody I can’t forget.
Every glance, a photograph,
Painted in my heart, and yet—
Pre-Chorus
(Drum brushes, subtle bass swell)
I bite my tongue, I hide my scars,
Afraid to break what we’ve become.
So close, but still so far,
My love screams loud, but stays unsung.
Chorus
(Full instrumentation – soaring strings, punchy drums)
Oh, this unspoken love,
Burns like stars up above.
I’m drowning in the silence,
Lost in your innocence.
Oh, if you only knew,
Every “friend” is “I love you.”
But I’ll keep this ache,
For your sake…
Verse 2
(Piano arpeggios, cello harmonies)
You talk of them, your eyes alight,
While mine just trace your silhouette.
I memorize your voice at night,
A song I’ll never duet.
(Repeat Pre-Chorus & Chorus)
Bridge
(Stripped down – just piano & whispered vocals)
Maybe in another life,
We’d be written in the stars.
But here I am, a fading light,
Loving you from afar…
(Big final chorus – key lift, emotional climax)
Oh, this unspoken love,
(Now the truth is bleeding out…)
Burns like stars up above.
(But you’ll never hear my sound.)
I’m drowning in the silence,
Lost in your innocence.
Oh, if you only knew…
Every “friend” is “I love you.”
(Outro – piano fades, last line whispered)
But I’ll keep this ache,
For your sake…
