When I tried to smother the fire inside I scorched myself and I nearly died I know now I will never be too hurt to yearn And that true feelings are safe when they hide Attached like the shadow by your side Even if I sank in every ocean a thousand times I still could not drown this flame I have inside tonight You must never know of the candle engraved with your name that would ruin everything! and so I love you in vain and in secret Only I know what this love feels like Only I know it's pain
