lyrics

We were friends
Used to run to each other whenever times were rough
We shared our deepest secrets and fears
We thought we knew everything
And it was us against the world

We never said anything
Didn’t wanna wreck everything
It was obvious that inside our little hearts
There was a dazzling flame
Burning incessantly and killing us
Didn’t want to let them speak

When you smiled my body trembled
My heart stopped
Couldn’t control it
I thought I could tell you how I felt

But I never said anything
Didn’t wanna wreck everything
It was obvious that inside my little heart
There was a dazzling flame
Burning incessantly and killing me
Didn’t want to let it speak

You never said anything
Didn’t wanna wreck everything
It was obvious that inside your little heart
There was a dazzling flame
Burning incessantly and killing you
Didn’t want to let it speak
