Lyrics

well i know your life has been hard, i see it in your eyes and i feel it in your heart, when your eyes move down to the floor, and your mouth changes shape, and your voice sounds sore, i can hold you close in my arms, and tell you that you're special, and that you treasure such great charms, and that you always keep my heart full, but i'm hardly speaking a word, i'm hardly speaking a word, and i know these things should be heard, but i'm hardly speaking a word, and your struggle never changes me, i'll never be able to see the things you see, they say that you see things differently, just because it's different doesn't mean it can't be free, but i'm hardly speaking a word, i'm hardly speaking a word, so i wonder, what do they know, maybe the problem is me not letting go, of a little boy who's smarter than me, who can't sit still and sees things differently, and i'm yelling when i should be whispering, i'm pushing when i should be carrying, and i don't understand anything i've heard, i should be yelling i love you, but i'm hardly speaking a word, so i wonder, what do i know, maybe the problem is me not letting go, of a little boy who's smarter than me, who can't sit still and sees things differently, and i'm yelling when i should be whispering, and i'm pushing when i should be carrying, and i don't understand anything i've heard, i should be yelling i love you, i should be yelling i love you, i should be yelling i love you, but i'm hardly speaking a word
