How do I tell you
I'm in love with you
Without saying the words?
How do I tell you
How smitten I am
Without sounding absurd?
They say distance brings fondness
But it also brings pain.
All these nights
Spent without you,
I've been breathing in vain.
You can't see it in my eyes,
So I'll cover it up with lies.
But I'm in love with you.
And the pain is my punishment.
