                       He watched her from across the room
                       breathing in her beauty and grace,
                       oh how he longed to hold her
                       and dreamed she could fill his empty space.

                       He admired her from a distance
                       and desired her heart to share,
                       he wished that he could tell her
                       just how much it is that he cared.

                       He will never tell her these things
                       he'll just go home all alone,
                       for in his heart he feels
                       she'd never want to be a part of his home.

                       So he turned and strolled away
                       and he slowly walked out the door
                       and the smile she wore faded from her lips,
                       she thought that this would be the night...
                       oh she was so sure.

                       Silent love is such a tragedy
                       when two hearts aren't made aware,
                       that the desire of the other
                       is the same as that which is wanted to share.
