you’re not here to see me cry,
and you’ll never know the loneliness I hide,
but I smile, ‘cause no one needs to know
how hard it is to let you go,
I just tell them all that I’m alright,

you’re not here to hold my hand,
& it seems like no one else can understand,
that your hand is gone, and now I know
I held too tight, afraid you’d go,
thinking things would always be alright..

you’re not here to see me laugh
when I think of things that we did in the past,
but how can I laugh, when I know,
my heart won’t seem to let you go,
I just tell myself I’ll be alright..you’re not here to see me cry,
and you’ll never know the loneliness I hide…
