In the whispers of the crowd, I see you standing there
With a light around you, and her golden hair
I'm the girl in the corner, with a love so true
Hiding in the verses, I wrote for you

I'm the voice in the silence, the unsung lullaby
For a heart that doesn't see me, no matter how I try
I'm the one who loves you, more than she ever could
But you don't see the beauty, underneath my hood

I've got dreams in my pocket, full of songs unsung
For a man who can't see me, I'm not the one
She's got the grace and the glory, that catches your eye
And I'm just a shadow, that you pass by

In the silence of my room, I hold a picture frame
With a photograph of you, but it's not the same
'Cause she's the one reflected in your smiling eyes
And I'm just a shadow, a love in disguise

In the mirror of my doubts, I see the truth so clear
You're with her 'cause she's beautiful, a fear I hold near
But beauty's just a surface, a fleeting, shallow tide
I've got an ocean's depth for you, here inside

Maybe one day you'll see, beyond the face, beyond the skin
To the heart that beats for you, the love that's been
I'll wait for that sunrise, when you'll finally find
The love that's been waiting, the one that's been kind

I'm the voice in the silence, the unsung lullaby
For a heart that doesn't see me, no matter how I try
I'm the one who loves you, more than she ever could
But you don't see the beauty, underneath my hood

So I'll sing these verses, to the stars above
Sending out my love, on the wings of a dove
Till the day you see me, and the love I've stored
I'm the girl with the song, the one who adored
