Quiet
I always kept my thoughts locked in my lips
 Secrets, confessions, things I wished I’d said
 You could x-ray them in my head
 Sometimes I’d hope you would
 So you could see why
  
 
 We’d flirt with each other but I’d never kid
 I’d smile when you’d whisper my name
 My heart would drop when your hand did
 Those moments I would never admit it
 But I regret being so quiet
  
 I’ve got a heart on the back of my hand
 With your name written all over it
 From the ink of a invisible pen
 I’ll never be able to get over it
  
 And you’ve got a girl whose mouth should be censored
 And I’m the type of girl whose words you should remember
 Oh boy, haven’t you heard of body language?
 Oh boy, you deserve better than to settle for average
  
 Because when we flirt I’d never kid
 And you make me smile when you whisper my name
 My heart would drop a million stories if your hand did
 This moment, right now, I admit it
 I’m no longer going to be quiet
 Oh, why I should try to hid it?
 Starting now, I refuse to be quiet
