VERSE:
   Look at how she look at me.
   I can never look at her that way.
   Full of all the feelings and the soft
   Unspoken words that lovers say.
   In all the words and all the books
   I wish there were a way to say that
   What she's taught me
   Isn't written anywhere
   And I'm supposed to be the one
   Who's wise.
   One thing is certain,
   I can never be what she
   Expects of me.
  
  
   I've wanted the shadows,
   I don't anymore.
   No matter what happens,
   I won't anymore.
   I've run from the sunlight-
   Afraid it saw too much.
   The moon had the one light
   I bathed in-
   I walked in.
   I held in my feelings
   And close ev'ry door.
   No matter what happens,
   I can't anymore.
  
   There's someone who must hear
   The words I've never spoken.
   Tonight if he were here
   My silence would be broken.
   I need him to touch me-
   To know the love that's in my heart-
   The same heart that tells me
   To see myself-
   To free myself-
   To be myself at last!
  
   For too many mornings
   The curtains were drawn.
   It's time they were opened
   To welcome the dawn.
   A voice deep inside
   Is getting stronger.
   I can't keep it quiet any longer.
   No matter what happens,
   It can't be the same anymore.
   I promise it won't be the same
   Anymore!
