"More Than a Maybe"

(Verse 1)
I see you laugh like skies turn blue,
Like every storm was made for you.
You shine so bright, yet out of reach,
A silent lesson I can't teach.
You're close enough to hear me breathe,
But far away – you'll always leave.
I'm just a name you pass right by,
A quiet echo, asking why.
(Pre-Chorus)
And every night, I lie awake,
Wondering what I couldn’t make.
(Chorus)
'Cause I feel more than just a maybe,
More than a dream that's lost, gone hazy.
You look at me but never stay,
You turn to light, I fade to grey.
I give you love, you give me space,
Still I chase shadows of your face.
(Verse 2)
I wear a smile, but fall apart,
Each beat you miss breaks more of heart.
You speak with warmth, but not to me,
Just words that float and never see.
I sing to winds that never blow,
You never hear, you’ll never know.
To you, I’m just a passing thought,
But you're the fire I never fought.
(Pre-Chorus)
And every day, I hope you see,
The one who's right in front of thee.
(Chorus)
'Cause I feel more than just a maybe,
More than a song that's playing faintly.
You walk on by, you don’t slow down,
I'm here, unseen in this whole town.
I give you all, you walk away,
Yet still I hope you'll turn one day.
(Bridge)
And even if you say goodbye,
Without a word, without a why –
You’ll be the wish I couldn’t keep,
The dream that haunts me in my sleep.
(Final Chorus)
'Cause I feel more than just a maybe,
More than the breeze that whispers lately.
I’d be your voice, your favorite line,
But you just hum to songs not mine.
I give you love, you let it fall,
But still I stand…
and risk it all.
