I Secretly Love You

19 February 1999. There must have been too much cheese in my burger meal on that day.

The day I met you
No other feelings inside
Just a feeling that’s true
For a friend on my side

You’re precious, that’s no lie
Always here when my life runs dry
And in times when I can’t help but cry
You wipe tears in my eye

I wish to be close to you
And I hope you feel the same way, too
But I’m afraid to confess all of these
Pain might strike my chest

For I know, you love me just as a friend
Don’t know if you could trace another end
Is that love that my heart can see
Or just the way I want it to be

Days have passed by thinking of you
I don’t know if I could tell you
That I have learned to care for you
That I secretly love you

I promise to keep it ‘till the end
If I could not, send me to the edge
But I fear the moment you go
Without even telling you, “I love you.”
