The Question I Can't Ask

歌詞

Left work early, thought I’d surprise you Just a quiet night, me and you But on that street, in the fading light I saw you walking with a man, holding tight I froze in place, couldn’t believe Your laugh, your smile—it cut so deep I turned away, didn’t want to see But that moment still keeps haunting me Now I’m sitting here in our home Waiting for your footsteps, all alone You walk in, smile like every day Say work ran late, got caught in the way I nod and smile, try to play the part But there's a storm breaking in my heart The words burn on the edge of my lips But I can’t ask… not like this You hum a song, pour a glass of wine Kiss my cheek like everything’s fine But my mind keeps replaying that scene Like a movie I wish I’d never seen Your perfume’s the same, your voice so sweet But I wonder who walked beside your feet I want the truth, but I’m scared to break The life we built, the love at stake Now I’m lying here in our bed Your head on my chest, my thoughts filled with dread You dream in peace while I fight with doubt Trying to keep the demons out I reach for you but I’m falling fast Caught in a silence I can’t get past The truth is close, but I can’t ask So I lie here… wearing a mask Do you still love me? Am I the only one you see? Or is there a part of you That no longer belongs to me? Now I’m drifting in the dark Holding on to a fading spark You’re still here, but so far away And I don’t know what I should say If I ask, I might lose it all But if I don’t, I might never know So tonight I keep it all inside With a love I’m scared to let die The question I can't ask... Is the one that keeps me up at night.
