Hide Away

I could run away, I could hide.

I'd be forever safe inside.

I would never speak outside my mind,

I would never tell a lie.

Just imagine me all by myself,

I know I'd be just fine.

Without another word, I could say everything,

for I would only use my heart.

And you would always know exactly how I feel, 

and we would never grow apart.

If you could only see without your eyes,

we'd have eternity in time.

And with silence everywhere,

a quiet reckoning would very easily unwind.

But I will never be this close with anyone,

if I just run away and hide...
