Held to my heart,
A secret tearing me apart.
Words kept silent,
To prevent all of the violence.

I don't want to see you walk away,
I don't want to hear say,
those words I know you'll say.
So I'll keep my mouth shut,
Keep my heart at bay.
Because I'm afraid that it'll lead us astray.

I'll keep this love to myself,
Not willing to risk this wealth,
You make me feel so rich in love.

I'll keep this love to myself,
Don't want to see you go,
Don't want to lose you so
I'll keep my words in my chest,
And I'll do my best
To be there always.
