I Love You Quietly
By Kristine Nana
The first time I saw you
You took my breath away
But when I looked into your eyes
I look down and shy away
I hear you laugh
And see your smile through your eyes
And my heart beats a little faster
And my world moves a little slower
Baby, I love you quietly
From a distance, I see you dancing with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
I hear your laugh
And I see you're in love ...with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
When our eyes meet
And when you smile at me
My world freezes around me
But I look down and shy away, shy away
Baby, I love you quietly
From a distance, I see you dancing with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
I hear your laugh
And I see you're in love ...with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
Alone in my room
I asked myself why? why? why?
Why does it have to hurt?
Why do I hurt?
Baby, I love you quietly
From a distance, I see you dancing with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
I hear your laugh
And I see you're in love ...with her
It hurts but I accepted it
Because I love you quietly
I watch from a distance
But it's now time to let go
Because, baby, I love you quietly, quietly
I loved you quietly
