I've tried to stop and cover up
The feelings stealin' by
They just wanna fly your way
But I'm afraid I'm shy
And I'm a fool
I'm zero cool
When it comes to you
So I've applied the rule:
I'll play it safe and hide

(But) behind the scenes, it's more extreme
I'd scare you away (I'd scare you away)
Through winding halls
Behind these walls
Lies buried what I don't say

Now I've kept my secrets locked inside
I wanna begin to let you in my mind
But here's where we hit the hardest spot
Letting you go deep into my secret heart

The way you take
Your hands and wake
Fingers through your hair
In my heart you're everywhere
And in the tears I die for
Like a day
You stared my way
And smiling asked my name
Took a while to breathe again
You think I'd know the answer
Now here we are
Beneath the stars
Can you see me shake?
I want you near
To share my fears
And promise this trust won't break

Now I've kept my secrets locked inside
And as I begin to let you in my mind
It's here that we hit the hardest spot
Letting you go deep into my secret heart

You
You tell me everything
And it makes me feel maybe I can do the same
Have patience with me
And eventually
I'll let you in again and again

Again
Begin to let you in my mind
Deep into my secret heart

I wanna begin to let you in my mind
Begin to let you in my mind
Now I've kept my secrets locked inside
And as I begin to let you in my mind
It's here that we hit the hardest spot
Letting you go deep into my secret heart
