You Don’t Know My Heart Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We learn to stand in the shadows
Watch the way the wind blows
Thinking no one knows we're one of a kind
Shy glances at the neighboring team
Romance is a dangerous dream
Never knowing if they'll laugh or scream
Living on a fault line
Will you, won't you be mine?
Hoping it'll change in time

[Chorus]
We can't hold hands
When there's sunlight in the park
We just hold hands after dark
And people say we choose this way
To set ourselves apart
I say, "You don't know my heart
You don't know my heart"

[Verse 2]
Used to run, I used to hide
Heard a joke and let it slide
Easier to laugh than lie, waiting on discovery
Tried to fit, I tried to blend
We learn young to pretend
'Cause if they knew, the world would end
Frightened of my family
Where is everyone like me?
When will I be free

[Chorus]
We can't hold hands
When there's sunlight in the park
We just hold hands after dark
And people say we choose this way
To set ourselves apart
I say, "You don't know my heart
You don't know my heart"

[Bridge]
Everybody needs a love of their own
I'm no different than the rest
Everyone deserves a happy home
And that's what we do best
Why do they have to make it a test?

[Chorus]
We can't hold hands
When there's sunlight in the park
We just hold hands after dark
And people say we choose this way
To set ourselves apart
I say, "You don't know my heart
You don't know my heart"

[Outro (Fade)]
We can't hold hands
When there's sunlight in the park...
