Darling, Can I Say Lyrics

Here I am, peering into what I see

Your eyes shine with glee

I'm broken when I turn away

I can't accept the love you're showing me

I can't tell you what I feel

I need to heal

I've always wanted to ask

To tell the truth

But some things I just can't reveal

So just let me be

I'm not ready to be

Rejected again

My soul has a leak

I don't have the tools to win

And open my heart again

Darling, can I say

What I really feel inside

It's been too many days

I can't hold on to pride

It's your touch that could save my life

Your words that could be the key

I wish I could cast the fear aside

Speak the words that make us free

So just let me be

I'm not ready to be

Rejected again

My heart is so bleak

I look at what has been

And close my heart again

So where you rest now

Your final resting place

What could have been will always remain

I hope others can have the courage

To open their hearts to what I never embraced
