To say

'I love you' to you I want to say.

But I sigh and look away.

I reach out to others and talk.

And I watch you as you give me that look

It is that look that causes my blood to run cold

It is that look that makes me shiver, shake and roll

Are you listening to every word I say?

Does my musing amuse you most of all?

'I'm sorry' instead I say.

But you stay cold, distant and miles away.

'I love you' I want you to say.

But you sigh and look away.

You reach out to others and talk.

And I watch you as you watch me give you that look

Does that look also cause your blood to run cold?

Does that look also make you shiver, shake and roll?

Do you know I'm listening to every word you say?

Do know your musing amuse me most of all?

'I'm sorry' instead you say,

But I stay cold, distant and miles away.

As the lesson comes to an end and the silence lifts, we drift home, knowing you only listen to placate me.
