He'll Never Know

The secret glances
He looks over
A picture lasts longer
Laugh and look away
He'll never know

Joking around
Tears of sadness
Masked by tears of laughter
Telling him how funny he is
Words of love woven through
He'll never know

Hear him talk about her
He likes her so much
Offering words of encouragement
Cries of heartbreak behind the words
He'll never know

They walk down the halls
He smiles your way
Bury the heartbreak
Smile back
He'll never know

In the privacy of your own room
Everything locked inside
Released in sobs and screams
Fall into a tortured slumber
He'll never know

Smile at him
Laugh at all his jokes
No tears
He'll never know
But it's okay
