Never Dare

Never knew I could feel so conflicted

Never knew I had so many thoughts in my head

But I never saw the way you looked at me

I never guessed, I never dreamed, I never dared

Why couldn’t I have dared to feel

But I couldn’t bear to say I like yourself

How could I dare

Couldn’t bear to see you run away

No, I’d never dare

How could I say, ‘You make me laugh

When I normally want to cry’

How could I thank you

When I’m not really sure why

You’re the only one that listens

- You’re the only one that dares

And you talk to me

You promise you’ll always talk to me

Why couldn’t I have dared to feel

But I couldn’t bear to say I like yourself

How could I dare

Couldn’t bear to see you run away

No, I’d never dare

And so I buried my emotions deep

I hid them deep inside

So I wouldn’t freak you out when I looked at yourself

To stop myself from acting like a fool

But then I saw this look

Though I didn’t dare to think

- No I was too scared to think

That maybe you liked me

Why couldn’t I have dared to feel

But I couldn’t bear to say I like yourself

How could I dare

Couldn’t bear to see you run away

No, I’d never dare

Now I don’t know what to think

I don’t know what’s going on inside

I need to look inside your mind

I need to know if you care

Do we dare to care

Why couldn’t I have dared to feel

But I couldn’t bear to say I like yourself

How could I dare

Couldn’t bear to see you run away

No, I’d never dare
