Can’t sleep well tonight
Too full with thoughts of you
Wish I never had to reason why
Wish I never had to justify
Some things are better left unsaid
But if you look into my eyes
You will find I have no place to run or hide

There’s restlessness in me
Begging to be let free
Wish I could find the words
Wish I could erase this hurt
Some things are better left untold
As I lay here all alone
A single flame across the sky, across the night

I wish I could steal the stars for you
Keep you safe, keep you warm
Wish I could hold you
I watch you smile in your sleep
Wish you could see me in your dreams
Tonight I’ll be your guiding light
Wish I could tell you how much you mean to me

Can’t believe it could hurt so bad
But I keep it all inside
Wish I could shout it out
Wish I could tell the world
But I couldn’t find the strength
Couldn’t find a way to make you understand
As I lay here all alone wish you could hear me now

Wish I could conquer my fears
Wish I could dispel my insecurities
