When I Play

When I play a song
I play for you
My love flows through the notes
And reaches your ears

I watch you listening
Occasionally tapping your foot
With the rhythm of love
In the song I play for you

You will not listen to me
When I tell you how much I love you
So instead I play
Because that is the only way you will listen

To the love I have in my heart for you
I know you do not think I know what love is
Or how it feels inside
But I know in my heart what I play is true

You might not love me
And I might not be a dream come true
But I will continue to play because I cannot say
How much I love you
